Ditto what Cathy said above about the site for the words to the Auctioneer-speak. Also, for some country flavor, consider the following:

(Remember Me) I'm the One;
It's Too Late, He Wins

Both of the above from the Songbook boxed set of early 60s Lightfoot when he sounded just like Jim Reeves (a country singer of the 50s and early 60s).

Also:

I Used To Be A Country Singer (from the Painter Passing Through cd)

There are many other Gord tunes that are heavily laced with country flavor. I guess it all depends on one's own personal perception of "what" is country. Don't forget that Sundown charted on the Country charts back in the 70s, too!
