Lying in the tall grass, the sun burning down
With the best looking girl in my home town
People say that I’m crazy, that I’m wasting my time
But I’m having a ball with that girl of mine
Little darling…

You are the best, the best I ever had
You are the best, the best I ever had

Lying in the tall grass, the sun burning bright
Making love all day, just singing all night
Everything’s ok, it’s gonna be all right
Move a little closer, now hold me tight
Then whisper…

You are the best, the best I ever had
You are the best, the best I ever had

I said, "Hey, baby
Let the big dogs bark and the little ones run and hide"
I said, "Hey, baby
Life’s way too short to waste it all inside"
So come on now

Come on now, yeah, come on now, yep
