Aint This the Life
[Verse 1]
Livin' way up now in a penthouse high
Our steaks are rare and our martini's dry
Folks below, they say it ain't fair
Hell with them; I really don't care
Joie de vivre, mon amie
Ain't this the life?

[Verse 2]
Having a party on a big jet plane
I got so drunk that I could feel no pain
Hangin' out in Acapulco
Drinkin' rum and sniffin' coco
Pretty señorita, look this way

[Pre-Chorus]
Dancing through the night
Everything's all right
Girlfriend and a wife...
Ain't this the life?
Yeah, I said, "Ain't this the life?"
Tell me, tell me, tell me: Ain't this the life?
Oh, mama, mama, mama, ain't this the life?
Baby, baby, baby, baby, ain't this the life?
[Chorus]
The life, oh, ain't this the life?
Baby, baby, baby, ain't this the life?
The life, oh, ain't this the life?
Baby, baby, baby, ain't this the life?
Oh, ain't this the life?
Ain't this the life?

[Verse 3]
Tropical island in the deep blue sea
The natives are friendly and the lobster's free
Sipping Cognac like a French king
Plenty of room; I own the whole thing
"Joie de vivre, mon amie"
Ain't this the life?

[Verse 4]
Think I'll go out now on a shopping spree
Breakfast in New York; dinner in Parie
Hangin' out with Lynn and Suzie
Have a massage and a Jacuzzi
Climb into bed and see what's on TV

[Pre-Chorus]
Dancing through the night
Everything's all right
Girlfriend and a wife...
Ain't this the life?
Yeah, I said, "Ain't this the life?"
Tell me, tell me, tell me: Ain't this the life?
Oh, mama, mama, mama, ain't this the life?
Baby, baby, baby, baby, ain't this the life?
[Chorus]
The life, oh, ain't this the life?
Baby, baby, baby, ain't this the life?
The life, oh, ain't this the life?
Baby, baby, baby, ain't this the life?
Oh, ain't this the life?
Ain't this the life now?

[Outro]
Oh, baby, baby, baby, ain't this the life?
Oh, mama, mama, mama, ain't this the life?
Tell me, tell me, tell me: Ain't this the life?
Baby, baby, baby, ain't this the life?
Oh, mama, mama, mama, ain't this the life?
Tell me, tell me, tell me: Ain't this the life?
Baby, baby, baby, ain't this the life?
Mama, mama, mama, ain't this the life?
Tell me, tell me, tell me: Ain't this the life?

Oh, I said, "Ain't this the life?"
Oh, I said, "Ain't this the life?"
Oh, I said, "Ain't this the life?"
