Good times These are the good times Leave your cares behind These are the good times Good times These are the good times Our new state of mind These are the good times Happy days are here again The time is right for makin' friends Let's get together, how 'bout a quarter to ten Come tomorrow, let's all do it again Boys will be boys, better let them have their toys Girls will be girls, cute pony tails and curls Must put an end to this stress and strife I think I want to live the sporting life Good times These are the good times Leave your cares behind These are the good times Good times These are the good times Our new state of mind These are the good times A rumor has it that it's getting late Time marches on, just can't wait The clock keeps turning, why hesitate? You silly fool, you can't change your fate Let's cug the rug, a little jive and jitterbug We want the best, we won't settle for less Don't be a drag, participate Clams on the half shell and roller-skates, roller-skates Good times These are the good times Leave your cares behind These are the good times Good times These are the good times Our new state of mind These are the good times Good times

“Good Times” foi composta por Bernard Edwards e Nile Rodgers e lançada no álbum *Risqué* de 1979, alcançando número um nas paradas Billboard Hot 100 e de soul no mesmo ano.
A faixa chegou ao terceiro lugar nas paradas de disco, ao lado de “My Forbidden Lover” e “My Feet Keep Dancing”, mostrando seu amplo sucesso nas pistas de dança.
A batida de “Good Times” foi recriada na icônica gravação de 1979 “Rapper’s Delight” do Sugarhill Gang, que se tornou um marco do hip‑hop; os autores de Chic foram creditados como co‑compositores após acordo legal.
Nile Rodgers revelou que as letras, inspiradas em “Happy Days Are Here Again” e “About a Quarter to Nine”, foram usadas como forma velada de criticar a depressão econômica dos EUA na época.
Em 1979 a Billboard nomeou “Good Times” como o single de R&B número um do ano, e a canção ocupa a posição 229 na lista dos 500 maiores hits da história da Rolling Stone.
