[Verse 1]
(Ooh) Hey my girl
She does something to my chemistry
And when I'm close I'm sure
I raise her temperature
'bout three degrees
Everyday, yeah
In every way she
Makes my motor purr
And I reciprocate
My life I dedicate to lovin' her
[Chorus]
So we've got a good thing going
A real good thing going yeah
That girl and me
And I don't have to ask
Cause I know it's
Gonna last eternally
(Now let me tell you what we got)
[Verse 2]
Understanding
Whenever handing any alibis
Instead of what you do
Where you been or what's the use
We're making nice
You see we've got a good thing going
A real good thing going yeah
That girl and me
And she don't have to ask
Cause she know it's
Gonna last eternally
(Ooh) Hey my girl
She does something to my chemistry
And when I'm close I'm sure
I raise her temperature
'bout three degrees
Everyday, yeah
In every way she
Makes my motor purr
And I reciprocate
My life I dedicate to lovin' her
[Chorus]
So we've got a good thing going
A real good thing going yeah
That girl and me
And I don't have to ask
Cause I know it's
Gonna last eternally

And she don't have to ask
Cause she know it's
Gonna last eternally
