Lyrics and translation
Original
I just wanna go back, back to 1999.
Take a ride to my old neighborhood. I just wanna go back. Sing hit me baby one more time.
Wanna go back, wanna go. Yeah, I just wanna go back.
No cares, all that. CD, old Mercedes. Drive 'round listening to Shady like oh.
Never under pressure, oh. Those days, it was so much better, oh.
Feeling cool in my youth relaxing. No money, no problem. It was easy back then. Oh.
Wish that we could go back in time. Uh. Got memories. Oh.
Maybe we could do it tonight, tonight's the night.
I just wanna go back, back to 1999.
Take a ride to my old neighborhood. I just wanna go back. Sing hit me baby one more time.
Wanna go -back, wanna go. -Yeah, I remember back home.
Best friends, all night, no phone. No cares, I was dumb and so young.
My room singing Michael -Jackson. -Heal.
-Never under pressure. -Oh.
-Those days, it was so much better. -Oh.
Feeling cool in my youth, I'm asking, does anyone remember how we did it back then?
Oh.
Wish that we could go back in time.
Uh. Got memories. Oh.
Maybe we could do it tonight, tonight's the night. Oh, yeah.
I just wanna go back, back to 1999.
Take a ride to my old neighborhood. I just wanna go back. Sing hit me baby one more time.
Wanna go back, wanna go back to where we came from. Playing air guitar on the roof.
In the kitchen up on the table. Like we had a beautiful view. I wanna go.
I just wanna go back, back to 1999.
Oh, yeah.
Back to 1999.
I know those days are over, but a boy can fantasize about JTT on MTV.
Yeah, when I close my eye-eye-eyes. And I'm right there, right there.
And he's right there, right there.
And we're right there, right there. I, I, I-
I wanna go back. I just wanna go back, back to 1999.
Take a ride to my old neighborhood. I just wanna go back.
Sing hit me baby one more time. Wanna go back, wanna go back to where we came from.
Playing air guitar on the roof. In the kitchen up on the table. Like we had a beautiful view. I wanna go.
I just wanna go back, back to 1999.
Go back, yeah, yeah. I just wanna go back, back to 1999.
-Take it back to '99. -Yeah.
