Lyrics

If you're gonna give me
Good kisses like that
Honey, don't you know
I'm gonna give them right back
'Cause that's a kissin' good way, mmm, mmm
(That's a kissin' good way)
Ah, that's a kissin' good way
(That's a kissin' good way)
That's a kissin' good way
To mess around and fall in love
(Don't mess around, don't mess around)
Ooh, if you're gonna start out
Huggin' me tight
(Right)
Don't mess around, come and hug me right
'Cause that's a huggin' good way
(Yeah)
(That's a huggin' good way)
That's a huggin' good way
(That's a huggin' good way)
Mmm, that's a huggin' good way
To mess around and fall in love
(Don't mess around)
(Sing it Bonnie)
(Don't mess around)
You know you called me on the phone
(Yeah, I got ya number)
And just because I was alone
Ah, you came around a-wooin'
(Why not?)
You'd better ask somebody
If you don't know what you're doin'
Now, you've kissed me
And you rocked my soul
Don't come around knockin' rock and roll
'Cause that's a rockin' good way
(That's a rockin' good way)
Woo-hoo, that's a rockin' good way
(That's a rockin' good way)
That's a rockin' good way
To mess around and fall in love
(Don't mess around)
(Tell me, baby)
(Don't mess around)
Well now, you called me on the phone
(Yeah, baby)
And just because I was alone
You came around wooin'
(Woo)
Ah, you'd better ask somebody
If you don't know what you're doin'
Now, you've kissed me
And you rocked my soul
(I love you so, baby)
Don't come around knockin' rock and roll
'Cause that's a rockin' good way
(That's a rockin' good way)
Shake it, that's a rockin' good way
(That's a rockin' good way)
(Ooh, yeah)
That's a rockin' good way
To mess around and fall in love
(Don't mess around)
(Yeah, what a way to go)
(Don't mess around)
It's a rockin' good way
(That's a rockin' good way)
Hmm, that's a rockin' good way
(That's a rockin' good way)
That's a rockin' good way
To mess around and fall in love
(Don't mess around, don't mess around)
It's a rockin' good way
To mess around and fall in love
Keep on rockin'
(I'm with you, baby)
It's a rockin' good way
(Ah, you better know it)
A rockin' good way
Ah, baby, you got what it takes
Rockin' good way
(Rock and roll, baby)
(Rock, rock, rockin')
(Rockin' good way)
