Lyrics:

“Some Kinda Good Kinda (Hold On Me)”

She’s got some kinda good kinda hold on me
She’s some kinda fine sho-nuff sweet
Wrapped up in her love is I wanna be
She’s got some kinda good kinda hold on meI can’t get enough of my baby’s huggin’ and kissin’
I never knew a girl who could do what she’s doing to me
With just one touch she cast a spell
I’m tangled up, I can’t help myself

She’s got some kinda good kinda hold on me
She’s some kinda fine sho-nuff sweet
Wrapped up in her love is I wanna be
She’s got some kinda good kinda hold on me

The boys call me up and want to tell me
About the fun I’ve been missing
They want to know why I let her keep me under
Lock and key
But I got what they’re looking for
When she gets me behind close doors

She’s got some kinda good kinda hold on me
She’s some kinda fine sho-nuff sweet
Wrapped up in her love is I wanna be
She’s got some kinda good kinda hold on me

She’s got some kinda good kinda hold on me
She’s some kinda fine sho-nuff sweet
Wrapped up in her love is I wanna be
She’s got some kinda good kinda hold on me
