Bid ’Em In Lyrics by Oscar Brown Jr.

Sin & Soul

0

Bid 'em in!
Bid 'em in! Get 'em in!
That sun is hot and plenty bright
Let's get down to business and get home tonight
Bid 'em in!
Auctioning slaves is a real high art
Bring that young gal, Roy. She's good for a start
Bid 'em in! Get 'em in!
Now here's a real good buy only about 15
Her great grandmammy was a Dahomey queen
Just look at her face, she sure ain't homely
Like Sheba in the Bible, she's black but comely
Bid 'em in!
Gonna start her at three. Can I hear three?
Step up gents. Take a good look see
Cause I know you'll want her once you've seen her
She's young and ripe. Make a darn good breeder
Bid 'em in!
She's good in the fields. She can sew and cook
Strip her down Roy, let the gentlemen look
She's full up front and ample behind
Examine her teeth if you've got a mind
Bid 'em in! Get 'em in!
Here's a bid of three from a man who's thrifty
Three twenty five! Can I hear three fifty?
Your money ain't earning you much in the banks
Turn her around Roy, let 'em look at her flanks
Bid 'em in!
Three fifty's bid. I'm looking for four
At four hundred dollars she's a bargain sure
Four is the bid. Four fifty. Five!
Five hundred dollars. Now look alive!
Bid 'em in! Get 'em in!
Don't mind them tears, that's one of her tricks
Five fifty's bid and who'll say six?
She's healthy and strong and well equipped
Make a fine lady's maid when she's properly whipped
Bid 'em in!
Six! Six fifty! Don't be slow
Seven is the bid. Gonna let her go
At seven she's going!
Going!
Gone!
Pull her down Roy, bring the next one on
Bid 'em in! Get 'em in! Bid 'em in!
