Lyrics + translation · letras.mus.br

🎤 Sing along

Sing with the chorus

  • Wish we could turn back time
  • To the good ol' days
  • When our momma sang us to sleep
  • But now we're stressed out

Sing it again — final chorus

  • Wish we could turn back time
  • To the good ol' days
  • When our momma sang us to sleep
  • But now we're stressed out
