Sittin’ in our rocking chairs on our country porch
Sipping from our Chardonnay, who could ask for more
The sun’s a lava flow, as it sets in the West
With you here by my side, this is the best of the best

We’re singing, ooh la la la, ooh la la la
There’s nothing better than this, mmm, hmmm
Singing ooh la la la, ooh la la la
This is as good as it gets, oh yeah

Screeching tires and taxi horns seem a lifetime away
A cricket symphony has taken their place
That apple pie you’re cooling has such a wonderful smell
I wouldn’t want to be anywhere else

Repeat chorus:

Bridge: We don’t miss those city lights
All the traffic and all the crime
We’ve left it all behind

Repeat bridge: oohs We’ve left it all behind

Instrumental half verse:

We’re singing, ooh la la la, ooh la la la
There’s nothing better than this, mmm, hmmm
Singing ooh la la la, ooh la la la
This is as good as it gets (We don’t need no city lights)
This is as good as it gets (All the traffic and the crime)
This is as good as it gets
