Oh baby baby
Oh baby baby
Oh baby baby, how was I supposed to know
That somethin' wasn't right here
Oh baby baby, I shouldn't have let you go
And now you're out of sight yeah

Show me, how you want it to be
Tell me baby
'Cause I need to know now what we've got

My loneliness is killing me
(And I) I must confess I still believe
When I'm not with you I lose my mind
Give me a sign
Hit me baby one more time

Oh baby, baby
The reason I breathe is you
Boy you got me blinded
I'll get you, baby
There's nothing that I wouldn't do
That's not the way I planned it
Show me, how you want it to be
Tell me baby
'Cause I need to know now what we've got

My loneliness is killing me
(And I) I  must confess I still believe
When I'm not with you I lose my mind
Give me a sign
Hit me baby one more time

Oh baby, baby
Oh baby, baby

Oh baby, baby
How was I supposed to know
Oh pretty baby
I shouldn't have let you go

I must confess that my loneliness
Is killing me now
Don't you know I still believe
That you will be here
And give me a sign
Hit me baby one more time

My loneliness is killing me
(And I) I  must confess I still believe
When I'm not with you I lose my mind
Give me a sign
Hit me baby one more time

I must confess that my loneliness
Is killing me now
Don't you know I still believe
That you will be here
And give me a sign
Hit me baby one more time

RIGHT= Correct:
- How was I supposed to know that something wasn’t right here = How could I have known that we had a problem?

OUT OF SIGHT= Impossible to see.

CAUSE= (coll.) Because.

LONELINESS= The state of being alone, without company.

IS KILLING ME= If something is killing you, it’s making you suffer a lot.

CONFESS= Admit; tell something which is intimate or secret.

I LOSE MY MIND= I go crazy.

GIVE ME A SIGN= Do something to show that you feel the same as I do.

HIT ME BABY ONE MORE TIME= (very coll.) Give me another chance.
The expression “hit me” in this sense is more commonly found in other contexts such as:
- In a bar, a tough guy drinking a whisky tells the barman, “hit me another” = Give me another whisky.
- Playing cards, a player says “hit me” = Give me another card, so I can keep playing.
The literal meaning of “hit me” would suggest violence, so the original title of the song, “Hit me baby” was soon changed to “Baby one more time” to prevent misunderstanding.

BREATHE= Take air in and out your body.

BLINDED= Obsessed with you (a blind person cannot see)

This was Britney's first hit, and it propelled her to stardom. The slick sound earned plenty of radio play, but it was the image of the schoolgirl Spears, who was just 16 when the song was released on October 23, 1998, that made her a sensation. MTV played the video, but it was the internet that gave her the most traction, as teenage girls and guys of all ages logged into their AOL accounts and typed some variation of "Britney Spears" into Alta Vista to see more of the starlet. Over the next 10 years, Spears led the world in celebrity news, with one incident after another documented by eager paparazzi. But it all started with this: a very slick Pop song about a girl who wants another chance with the guy she broke up with.
