The Auctioneer

There was a boy in Arkansas

Who wouldn't listen to his ma

When she told him that he should go to school

He'd sneak away in the afternoon

Take a little walk and pretty soon

You'd find him at the local auction barn

Well, he'd stand and listen carefully

Then pretty soon he began to see

How the auctioneer could talk so rapidly

His pappy'd find him behind the barn

Just a workin up an awful storm

As he tried to immitate the auctioneer

25 Dollar 30 now 30 dollar etc

Who will bid it at a 35 dollar bid

30 Dollar 35 etc

Who will bid it at a 35 dollar bid

Said his pappy, "son we just can't stand a havin'

A mediocre man

You gotta take that auction usin' our good name

I'll send you off to auction school

And then you'll be nobody's fool

You'll be the best of all the auctioneers

35 Dollar 40 dollar etc

Who will bid it a a 45 dollar bid

40 Dollar etc

Who will bid it at a 45 dollar bid

Well from that morning he went to school

There grew a man who played it cool

He came back home a full fledged auctioneer

And people came from miles around

Just to hear him make that rhythmic sound

Cause he's the best of all the auctioneers

Well his fame reached out from shore to shore

He had all he could do and more

He had to buy a plane to get around

Now he's the best in all the land

So let's all give that man a hand

He's the best of all the auctioneers

45 Dollar 50 now etc

Who will bid it at a 55 dollar bid

50 Dollar 50 now will you give me 55 etc

Sold that horse for a 50 dollar bill
