Lyrics & Translation

[English]

Champagne kinda night

All the way turning, coming down

Everything coming right

Can't nothing hold us down

I got you all in

Drunk, tripping off the sound

True you came here to get down

I dig the vibe that you feeling

Girl and I'm feeling it

Forget tomorrow let's live in night

This could last forever

We can go whatever

Oh it don't get no better

It don't get no better

Oh it don't get no better

It don't get no better

It don't get no better

It don't get no better

It don't get no better

Champagne kinda night

All the way I know turn it down

Everything feeling right

Me and my girls we own the town

You got me all bad

Super faded off the ground

All that I give it get down

I dig the vibe that you feeling

Boy and I'm feeling it

Forget tomorrow let's live in night

This could last forever

We can go whatever

Oh it don't get no better

It don't get no better

Oh it don't get no better

It don't get no better

This is fab

This is fab

This is fab

It don't get no better

It don't get no better

It don't get no better

It don't get no better

It don't get no better

It don't get no better

It don't get no better

It don't get no better
