Auctioneer (Live from London)

Lyrics

[Verse 1] She didn't want to get pinned down by her prior town Get me to the train on time, here, take this nickel, make a dime Take this penny and make it into a necklace when I leave What is at the other end? I don't know, another friend Another wife, another morning spent [Chorus] Listen, listen to the auctioneer Another engine, another engine [Verse 2] We never wrote the reasons that I need explained Some things are givens and others get away This time, it's for myself, you call it what you may Okay, we won't say goodbye so long, so much more [Chorus] And listen to the auctioneer Another engine, another engine [Bridge] Listen to the bargain holler Listen to the barter holler Listen to the auctioneer [Verse 3] Get me to the train on time Here, take this nickel, make a dime Take this penny and make it into a necklace when I leave What is at the other end? I don't know, another friend Another wife, another morning spent [Chorus] Listen, listen to the auctioneer Another engine, another engine Another engine, another engine [Outro] Do I stand the bargain holler? Listen to the barter holler
