Eddie Rabbitt - Every Which Way But Loose Lyrics

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

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

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
