[00:00.00]The Highest Bidder - Hank Snow
[00:07.24]You put your heart upon an auction block and sold it
[00:15.12]Selfish greed and envy were the auctioneers
[00:22.01]The highest bidder won your heart but he can't hold it
[00:29.74]Love that's bought with gold can only end in tears
[00:36.67]The price I offered was my true love and devotion
[00:44.47]But you laughed and said that love had had its day
[00:51.23]When at your feet I laid a heart filled with emotion
[00:59.39]You scorned the only price that I could pay
[01:35.99]May the golden price he paid you for your love dear
[01:43.47]Keep you with him may you never drift apart
[01:50.45]Cause at the auction of regret all tears are worthless
[01:58.32]Bids are low for second-handed broken hearts
[02:05.32]When all your wealth and riches cease to give you pleasure
[02:13.15]When you tire of playing princess you'll recall
[02:19.99]That love alone is life's true everlasting treasure
[02:27.68]And my bid it was the highest after all
