Pick 'em Up And Lay 'em Down Lyrics - Pull My Chain - Toby Keith

(Dave Loggins) 

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 

Photos 

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
