When it came to women
He just took his time
Handled the merchandise
Never made up his mind
But all week long
He's been rushing around
Trying to please this pretty girl
That's new in town
Yeah, he's in love
But he don't know what to do
What to do when she looks him in the eye
What to do when she laughs at all his lies
He's a smooth operator
But he don't know what to do
Now, this girl's been having fun
All this time
Found a new plaything
She take for a ride
But just last night
He could do no wrong
There was contact, no act
The feeling was strong
Now she's in love
But she don't know what to do
What to do when he gives that little sigh
What to do when he holds her oh so tight
She knows all the moves
But she don't know what to do
You can grab a magazine
To find that look
You can learn what to say
From a paper-back book
You can follow the pros
And that's a start
But you better beware
Love gets you in the (you-know-where)
What to do when she looks him in the eye
What to do when he give that little sigh
What to do when she laughs at all his lies
What to do when he holds her oh so tight
They're two lost lovers
That don't know what to do
