i've always been the kind of man 
who doesn't believe in strings 
long term obligations are 
just unnecessary things 
but girl you've got me thinkin' 
while i'm drinking one more beer 
if i'm headed for a heartache 
then why the hell am i still here 
i'm testin'my resistance 
and its wearin mighty thin 
i 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 
every which way but loose 
you turn me every which way but loose 
inside the fire's burnin me 
in mind you just keep turnin me 
every which way but loose 
baby there's no e cuse 
to turn me every which way but loose 
when the sun comes up in the mornin' 
it should find me someplace new 
but right this minute all i 
want is to lay here ne t to you 
those memories still keep callin 
me from somewhere in my past 
better hurry if they want me 
cause i can feel me fading fast 
while you're turnin me 
every which way but loose 
you turn me every which way but loose 
inside the fire's burnin me 
in mind you just keep turnin me 
every which way but loose 
baby there's no e cuse 
to turn me every which way but loose
