The Auctioneer

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?
 As time went on, he did his best
 And all could see he didn't jest
 He practiced calling bids both night and day
 His pap would find him behind the barn
 Just working up an awful storm
 As he tried to imitate the auctioneer
 Then his pap said, "Son, we just can't stand
 To have a mediocre man
 Sellin' things at auction using our good name
 I'll send you off to auction school
 Then you'll be nobody's fool
 You can take your place among the best"
 35 dollar bid it now a 40 dollar 40
 Will you gimmie 40 make it 40
 Bidin' it on a 40 dollar will you gimmie 40
 Who'll bid a 40 dollar bid?
 40 dollar bid it now, 45, will you gimmie 45
 To make it a 45 to bid it a 45
 Who would a-bid it at a 45 dollar bid?
 So from that boy who went to school
 There grew a man who played it cool
 He came back home a full-fledged auctioneer
 Then the people came from miles around
 Just to hear him make that rhythmic sound
 That filled their hearts with such a happy cheer
 His fame spread out from shore to shore
 He had all he could do and more
 Had to buy a plane to get around
 Now he's the tops in all the land
 And let's pause and give that man a hand
 He's the best of all the auctioneers
 45 dollar bid it now a 50 dollar 50
 Will you gimmie 50 make it 50
 Bidin' it on a 50 dollar will you gimmie 50
 Who'll bid a 50 dollar bid?
 50 dollar bid it now, 55, will you gimmie 55
 To make it a 55 to bid at 55
 Sold that hog for a 50 dollar bill
 Hey, well, alright sir
 Open the gate and let 'em out and walk 'em boys
 Here we come a lot number 29 in
 What are you gonna give for 'em?
 I have a 25, I oughta get 35 and now a 50 make it
 50 bid it along at 50, now 60 will ya' give me 60
 Now 75 and now 85 and now 95 and a 100 and now 25
 And now it's at 75 and a two and a three and a four and a five and a six
 Now seven, now 800 dollars and a buy 'em there
