โหลดเพลง mp3 The Auctioneer (Lp Version) - Gordon Lightfoot

Hey you've all regestered open the gate
And let them out and walk them about
Ere we come a letter number twenty-nine
What're you gonna gimme for there
Ah wenta-five wunna bid me biddle
Wanna five wanna five wanna five wudja biddle on a twenty-five
Gotta twenty-five dollar bidja-biddle on a five on the five
Wouldja biddle a on thirty dollar five
On a five would ya biddle on a five wouldja biddle on a thirty five
Well there was a boy from Arkansas who wouldn't listen to his Ma
When she told him that he should go to school
Well He'd stay 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
Until at last he began to see
How the auctioneer could talk so rapidly
Well he said oh my it's do or die
I've got to learn that auction cry
Gonna make my mark and be an auctioneer

Twenty-five dollar bid'ja now thirty dollar
Thirty wudja make it thirty bidda onna thirty dollar thirty dollar
Wouldja gimme thirty wouldja gimme thirty dollar bill
I gotta thirty dolla bidja now five wouldja beedle onna
Thirty five biddle on a thirty five thirty five
Who's gonna bitta the thirty five dollar bill

Well the time went by and he did his best
And all could see he did not jest
He practiced calling bids both night and day
Till his pappy found him behind the barn
Just working up an awful storm
As he tried to imitate the auctioneer
And his pop said Son we just can't stand to have a mediocre man
selling things at auction using our good name
Gonna send you off to auction school
And then you'll be nobody's fool
And you can take your place among the best
Thirty five dolla bidja now forty doller
Forty wouldja megga forty bidya on a forty doller forty doller
Wouldja gimme forty wouldja gimme forty dollar bill
I gotta forty dollar bidya now five wouldja biddle
On a forty-five bidgel on a forty-five forty-five
Who's gunna bidda the forty-five dollar bill

And from that boy that went to school
There grew a man who played it cool
He come back home a full fledged auctioneer
And the people would come from miles around
Just to hear him make that rhythmic sound
That filled their hearts with such a happy cheer
And his fame spread out from shore to shore
He'd all that he could do and more
He had to buy a plane to get around
Well now he's the best in all the land
Let's pause and give that man a hand
Because he's the best of all the auctioneers
Forty-five dollar bidja now fifty dollar fifty
Wouldja make it fifty biddle onna fifty dolla fifty dolla
Wouldja gimme fifty wouldja gimme fifty dolla bill
I gotta fifty dolla bidja now five wouldja
Biddle onna fifty-five biddle onna fifty-five fifty-five
Who's gonna bitta the fifty five dollar bill

Well I sold that hoss for fifty dollar bill
