  • I see her layin' by the poolside every day
    She ain't got a lot on
    She ain't got a lot to say

    She wouldn't look my way
    But, buddy, what do you expect?
    I'm just the fix-it-up boy at the apartment complex

    And she'll go out dancin' 'bout 7:15
    Climb into the back of a long limousine
    I know where she's goin'
    She's goin' downtown
    I'm goin' downtown too, and take a look around

    She's my baby doll
    She's my beauty queen
    She's my movie star
    Best I ever seen
    I ain't hooked it up yet
    But I'm tyin' hard as I can
    It's just a high maintenance woman
    Don't want no maintenance man

    I'm just sittin' 'round waitin' on a telephone call
    After water pipe exploded in the living room wall
    If your washer and dryer need a repair
    You know the handyman's waitin'
    And he'll be right there

    Twenty-four hours
    Seven days a week
    If it's gettin' clogged up or maybe startin' to leak
    Just ring up my number, baby, give me a try
    You know I got all the tools
    And I can satisfy

    She's my baby doll
    She's my beauty queen
    She's my movie star
    Best I ever seen
    I ain't asked her out yet
    'Cause I don't know if I can
    You see, a high maintenance woman
    Don't want no maintenance man

    She's my baby doll
    She's my beauty queen
    She's my movie star
    Best I ever seen
    I ain't hooked it up yet
    But I'm tryin' hard as I can
    It's just a high maintenance woman
    Don't want no maintenance man
    Ain't no high maintenance woman
    Gonna fall for a maintenance man Writer/s: Danny Simpson, Tim Wilson, Toby Keith
