She said the man's goin' home with me
|
She told the bar she was takin' all bets
|
Well never trust a woman drinkin' whiskey
|
That lights her own cigarette
|
I started callin' her baby, temptation was drivin' me wild
|
I think the only thing that saved me
|
It's just not my style
|
|
'Cause I'm not the kind of man that goes out just lookin' for a woman
|
I like the price you pay to keep passion on solid ground
|
I'm not the kind of man that holds out on a need for nothin'
|
I'm as lonely as any man around
|
I just don't like to pick 'em up and lay 'em down
|
Lay 'em down
|
Pick 'em up and lay 'em down
|
|
So we went from bottoms up to coffee cups
|
A corner booth where the lights got dim
|
We started talkin' 'bout gettin' real close
|
About how, and about when
|
It started rainin' harder and harder
|
I got up and with a thoughtful smile
|
I said, "Honey, if that ain't thunder and lightnin'
|
It just ain't worthwhile"
|
|
I'm not the kind of man that goes out just lookin' for a woman
|
I like the price you pay to keep passion on solid ground
|
I'm not the kind of man that holds out on a need for nothin'
|
I'm as lonely as any man around
|
I just don't like to pick 'em up and lay 'em down
|
Lay 'em down, down, down, down, down
|
|
I turned around and gave her one last smile
|
And thought about one long kiss
|
But that would be takin' it too far baby
|
And maybe something I couldn't resist
|
|
I'm not the kind of man that goes out just lookin' for a woman
|
I like the price you pay to keep passion on solid ground
|
I'm not the kind of man that holds out on a need for nothin'
|
I'm as lonely as any man around
|
I just don't like to pick 'em up and lay 'em down
|
Lay 'em down
|
Pick 'em up and lay 'em down
|
Lay 'em down
|
|
If it ain't about thunder and lightnin'
|
It just ain't worthwhile
|
Lord knows it just ain't my style
|
Pick 'em up and lay 'em down, down, down, down, down
|
Pick 'em up and lay 'em down
|
