(H-O-O-R-A-Y)

Vive la you, vive la me
Any old time that we're together
We're in the best of company
Never a fight (fight, fight, fight)
Never a fuss (fuss, fuss, fuss)
I don't know what we've got
But we've got something plus
Vive la us (Vive la us)

I've looked around at kings and queens
And people on the street (Ah-hah)
I've talked with men of many means
No wonder that I repeat

Vive la you, vive la me
Here we go arm in arm
In perfect harmony
So if it's time for viva la anybody
It's viva la you and viva la who, viva la me
(Viva, viva, viva, viva la you)
(Viva, viva, viva, viva la who)
(Viva, viva, viva, viva la me)

(I've talked with kings and people of many means)
(What did they say, what did they say)
(What did they say, what did they say)
(Viva la who, viva la who, viva la who)

(Vive la you, vive la me)
(Any old time that we're together)
(We're in the best of company)
Never a fight (fight, fight, fight)
Never a fuss (fuss, fuss, fuss)
I don't know what we've got
But we've got something plus
(Viva la, viva la, viva la us) Viva la us!

(So, here's to wine and here's to song)
(And here's to love affairs)
And here's to all the friends of yours
And all of the friends of theirs

Vive la you (Viva, viva, viva)
Vive la me (Viva la me)
Here we go arm in arm
In perfect harmony (perfect harmony)
So if it's time for viva la anybody
It's viva la you (Viva la who)
Viva la you (Viva la who)
Vive la you
Vive la me!
