Open the gate and let 'em out and walk 'em boys

G

I want a five dollar want a bid

C

Who wouldn't listen to his ma

D G D

When she told him that he should go to school

G

Well, he'd sneak away in the afternoon

C

Take a little walk and pretty soon

D G

You'd find him at the local auction barn

C

Well, he'd stand and listen carefully

G

Until at last he began to see

A D

How the auctioneer could talk so rapidly

G

Well, he said, "Oh my, it's do or die

C

I've got to learn that auction cry

Gonna make my mark and be an auctioneer"

Will you make it thirty, bid it on a thirty dollar thirty dollar

D G D

Will you give me thirty, will you give me thirty dollar bill

Who's gonna bid it at a thirty-five dollar bill
