We’ve Got A Good Thing Going – Lyrics

Mmh, hm
Uh huh
Yeah yeah
Alright
Love her
Love her
Yeah yeah
Uh huh

Ooo, hey my girl
She does something to my chemistry
And when I’m close I’m sure
I raise the temperature ’bout three degrees
Everyday yea
In everyway she makes my motor purr
And I reciprocate my life I dedicate to loving her

So we’ve got a good thing going (good thing going)
A real good thing going (good thing going)
That girl and me

And I don’t have to ask
Cause I know it’s gone last
Eternally

Now let me tell what we got
Understanding
We never handing any alibis
Instead of what you do
Where you been
Or what’s the use
We make it nice

A real good thing going
That girl and me
And she don’t have to ask
‘Cause she knows it’s gone last eternally

Said we got a good thing going
A real good thing going
That girl and me
And we don’t have to ask
‘Cause we knows it’s gone last eternally

Said we got a good thing going
A real good thing going
We got a thing together

Said we got a good thing going
A real good thing going
