The Auctioneer Song Lyrics

Hey, well, alright sir
Here we go there and what are ya' gonna give for 'em
I have a 600 dollar down here now ten and now 25 and
Now 35 and now there 50 now 60 will ya' give me 60
Now 75, 75 another 85 dollars and buy 'em there

There was a boy in Arkansas
Who wouldn't listen to his ma
When she told him he should go to school
He'd sneak away in the afternoon
Take a little walk then pretty soon
You'd find him at the local auction barn

He'd stand and listen carefully
Then pretty soon he began to see
How the auctioneer could talk so rapidly
He said, "Oh my, it's do or die
I've got to learn that auction cry
Gotta make my mark and be an auctioneer"

25 dollar bid it now, 30 dollar 30
Will you gimmie 30 make it 30
Bid it on a 30 dollar will you gimmie 30
Who'll bid a 30 dollar bid?
30 dollar bid it now, 35, will you gimmie 35
To make it 35 to bid at 35
Who would a-bid it at a 35 dollar bid?
