A Rocking Good Way
Brook Benton & Dinah Washington Lyrics

If you're gonna give me good kissin' like that
If you're going to kiss me well

Honey, don'tcha know I'm gonna give 'em right back to you
I am going to kiss you back just as well.

That's a kissin' good way (that's a kissin' good way)
This is a good way to share a kiss.

Ah, that's a kissin' good way (that's a kissin' good way)
Yes, this is really a great way to kiss.

Now, that's a kissin' good way to mess around and fall in love
This way of kissing can lead to more than just a fling.

(Don't mess around, don't mess around)
Let's not take this lightly.

If you're gonna start out by huggin' me tight
If you're going to begin with a tight hug

Don't mess around, just a-hug me right
Don't play around, hug me well, instead.

'Cause that's a huggin' good way (that's a huggin' good way)
This is a great way to hug.

That's a huggin' good way (that's a huggin' good way)
Yes, this is really a fantastic way to hug.

That's a huggin' good way to mess around and fall in love
Hugging like this might lead to love.

(Don't mess around, don't mess around)
Let's not take this lightly.

Ya know you called me on the phone
You called me on the phone

And just because I was alone
And because I was alone when you called

Yes, you came around wooin'
Yes, you visited when wooing me.

Ah, you'd better ask somebody if you don't know what you're doin'
You should ask for advice if you're unsure of what to do.

Now you kissed me and you rocked my soul
You kissed me and left me completely dazed.

And don't come around knockin' rock 'n' roll
Don't show up here playing loud rock and roll music.

'Cause that's a rockin' good way (that's a rockin' good way)
This is a really fantastic way to rock and roll.

Yes, that's a rockin' good way (that's a rockin' good way)
That is truly an amazing way to rock and roll.

That's a rockin' good way, ah, ah, to mess around and fall in love
Rocking and rolling like this might lead to love.

(Don't mess around, don't mess around)
Let's not take this lightly.

Well, ya know you called me on the phone
You called me on the phone

And just because I was alone
And because I was alone when you called

You came around a-wooin'
You visited when you were wooing me.

Mmm, now that you've kissed me and rocked my soul
Now that you kissed me and left me completely dazed.

Don't come around knockin' rock 'n' roll
Don't visit me playing loud rock and roll music.

That's a rockin' good way (that's a rockin' good way)
This is an amazing way to rock and roll.

Dinah, that's a rockin' good way (that's a rockin' good way)
Dinah, this is really a phenomenal way to rock and roll.

That's a rockin' good way to mess around and fall in love
Rocking and rolling like this might lead to love.

It's a rockin' good way
It is a great way to rock and roll.

I love to rock; how 'bout you?
I love to rock; do you as well?

Ah, baby, you got what it takes
Oh my! You surely possess admirable qualities.

Ah, ha, ain't that somethin'?
Ah, incredible! Isn't it?
