Lyrics

Ooh, baby, why can't we smile?
Ooh, baby, why can't we smile?
Ooh, baby, why can't we smile?
Ooh, baby, why can't we smile?
Ooh, baby, why can't we smile?
Ooh, baby, why can't we smile?
Like a child (going to spend our day)
Baby (trying to lose our way), why can't we smile?
All the while, baby, why can't we smile?
Like a child (going to spend our day)
Baby (trying to lose our way), why can't we smile?
All the while, baby, why can't we smile?
Can't we smile?
