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
