Old Man Auctioneer
Oh well here we go again

Make it 30 bid a 30 dollar will you 35, 5
Will you give me 40

There was a boy from Arkansas
who wouldn't listen to his ma
When she told him
he’d have to go to school
He'd take a walk in the afternoon
just follow him and pretty soon
You'd find him at the local auction barn
He'd stand and listen carefully
and pretty soon he began to see
How the auctioneer could talk so rapidly
Oh me oh my it's do or die
I've got to learn that auction cry
Gotta make my mark
and be an auctioneer
Here we go
25 dollar bid and 30 dollar bid
Will you give me 30, make it 30,
Make it for 30, will you give me 30,
Will you give me a 30 dollar bid?
30 dollar bid
Gotta 30 dollar bid, now 35
Will you give me 35, make it 35
Will you give me 35
Who will outbid that 35 dollar bid?
Now from the boy who went to school
there grew a man who played it cool
and he came home
a full fledged auctioneer
The people came from miles around
just to hear him make that rhythmic sound
That filled their hearts
with such a happy cheer
One more time
35 dollar bid, and now 40
Another 40, will you give me 40
Make a bid for 40, 40 dollars
Will you give me 40
Will you give me a 40 dollar bid
40 dollar bid
Got a 40 dollar bid, now 45
Will you give me 45, make it 45
Make it 45
Sold that hog for a 45 dollar bid
Five hundred 25 will you give me 30
Make it 30 bid a 30 dollar will you 35, 5
Will you give me 40
Will you give me 40
Will you give me 45, 5
Will you give me 50
Will you give me 55, 5, 5, 5
Everybody sing along now!
Here we go
Five hundred 25 will you give me 30
Make it 30 bid a 30 dollar will you 35, 5
Will you give me 40
Will you give me 40
Will you give me 45, 5
Will you give me 50
Will you give me 55, 5, 5, 5
Sold that hog for a 45 dollar bid.
Yee Haw!
