John Michael Montgomery – Sold (The Grundy County Auction Incident)

[Verse 1]
Well I went down to the Grundy County Auction
Where I saw something I just had to have
My mind told me I should proceed with caution
But my heart said go ahead and make a bid on that
[Chorus]
And I said hey pretty lady won’t you gimme a sign
I’d give anything to make you mine all mine
I’ll do your biddin’ and be at your beck and call
Yeah I’ve never seen anyone lookin’ so fine
Man I gotta have her she’s a one of a kind
I’m goin’ once, goin’ twice
I’m sold on the lady in the second row
She’s an eight, she’s a nine, she’s a ten I know
She’s got ruby red lips, blond hair, blue eyes
And I’m about to bid my heart goodbye
[Verse 2]
Well the auctioneer was goin’ ’bout a mile a minute
He was takin’ bids and callin’ them out loud
And I guess I was really gettin’ in it
Cause I just shouted out above the crowd
[Chorus]
And I said hey pretty lady won’t you gimme a sign
I’d give anything to make you mine all mine
I’ll do your biddin’ and be at your beck and call
Yeah I’ve never seen anyone lookin’ so fine
Man I gotta have her, she’s a one of a kind
I’m goin’ once, goin’ twice
I’m sold on the lady in the long black dress
Well she won my heart it was no contest
With her ruby red lips, blond hair, blue eyes
Well I’m about to bid my heart goodbye
[Verse 3]
Yeah we found love on the auction block
And I hauled her heart away
Now we still love to laugh about
The way we met that day
[Chorus]
When I said hey pretty lady won’t you gimme a sign
I’d give anything to make you mine all mine
I’ll do your biddin’ and be at your beck and call
Yeah I’ve never seen anyone lookin’ so fine
Man I gotta have her she’s a one of a kind
I’m goin’ once, goin’ twice
I’m sold on the lady in the second row
She’s an eight, she’s a nine, she’s a ten I know
She’s got ruby red lips, blond hair, blue eyes
And I’m about to bid my heart goodbye
