The Shania Twain If You’re Not In It For Love I’m Outta Here song was released in November 1995 as the fourth single from her second studio album, The Woman in Me (1995). the song became her second number-one hit at country radio and the first single to be promoted with three different mixes worldwide to cater to international demand. The song topped the US Billboard Hot Country Songs chart starting February 3, 1996.
This song narrates the story of a woman who knows her worth and refuses to settle for anything less than genuine, committed love. The chorus is a powerful declaration of self-respect, as Shania belts out the iconic lines, “If you’re not in it for love, I’m outta here!” One of the standout aspects of the song is its empowering message for women. Shania Twain, through her music and lyrics, has consistently advocated for women’s independence and the importance of self-love. “If You’re Not In It For Love (I’m Outta Here)” became an anthem for women who found the strength to break free from relationships that didn’t serve them emotionally or spiritually.

Shania Twain If You’re Not In It For Love I’m Outta Here Lyrics
Three, four, five
Mind if I sit down?
Can I buy you a round?
Haven’t seen your face before
Are you new in town?
It’s the same old line
Oh every time
Are you here alone?
Can I take you home?
Now every woman sees
With every “pretty please”
There’s a pair of lying eyes
And a set of keys
He says, “Come be a star” (Ooh)
“In the back seat of my car
Oh, but baby, slow down
You’re going way too far”
Let me make it clear
To you, my dear, yeah
If you’re not
In it for love
If you’re not
Willing to give it all you got
If you’re not in it for life
If you’re not in it for love
Let me make it clear
To you, my dear
You’re not in it for love
I’m outta here!
Babe, I can change your world
Make you a cover girl
Yeah, you could be a beauty queen
In a magazine
Now tell me, what’s your sign? (Ooh)
Why always the same old line?
I’ll be in number 409
If you change your mind
Let me make it clear
To you, my dear
If you’re not
In it for love
If you’re not
Willing to give it all you got
If you’re not in it for life
If you’re not in it for love
Let me make it clear
To you, my dear
You’re not in it for love
I’m outta here!
If you’re not in it for love, baby
Willing to give it all you got
Oh, if you’re not in it for life
If you’re not in it for love
If you’re not in it for life
If you’re not in it for love
I’m outta here!
