I've always been the kind of man
  Who doesn't believe in strings
  Long term obligations are just unnecessary things
  But girl, ya got me thinkin
  While I'm drinkin one more beer
  If I'm headed for a heartache
  Then why the hell am I still here
  
  I'm testin my resistance
  And it's wearin mighty thin
  I've got the feelin I should leave
  Before the roof caves in
  My mind tells me to move along
  But my body begs me stay
  And now I feel the need to hold you close
  And love the night away
  While you're turnin me
  
  Chorus: Every which way but loose
  You turn me
  Every which way but loose
  Inside the fire's burnin me
  In my mind you just keep turnin me
  Every which but loose
  Baby there's no excuse
  To turn me every which way but loose
  
  When the sun comes up in the mornin
  It should find me some place new
  But right this minute all I want
  Is to lay here next to you
  Those memories still keep callin me
  From somewhere in my past
  Better hurry if they want me
  'Cause I can feel me fadin fast
  While you're turnin me
  
  Repeat Chorus
