Me You and Jesus
Lainey Wilson Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

If I'm being real, I must confess
Some damn days I'm just trying my best
To get out of bed and get half dressed
Like I didn't spend the whole night crying
My mama's crazy and my daddy's mean
The apple don't fall far from the tree
Hell, I'd be lying right through my teeth
If the sun was always shining

That's the kinda dirt I save for the man upstairs
Now I'm sleeping in your shirt and you're right there

Yeah, it's me, you, and Jesus
Y'all just listen and don't judge me
Just shake your head and love me
When the world comes between us
Y'all don't give up or give a damn
You just take me for who I am
And I swear we can get through anything
Me, you, and Jesus

Words can hurt right to the bone
They type 'em out like sticks and stones
Might cut me deep but I ain't alone
'Cause you always got me
You say I'm pretty to my core
My heart is something worth fighting for
If this is all I get, good Lord
I don't need nobody

But me, you, and Jesus
Y'all just listen and don't judge me
Just shake your head and love me
When the world comes between us
Y'all don't give up or give a damn
You just take me for who I am
And we can get through anything
Me, you, and Jesus

He's up in Heaven, and honey, you're Heaven sent
You would die for me, and He already did

And baby, it's me, you, and Jesus
Y'all just listen and don't judge me
Just shake your head and love me
When the world comes between us
Y'all don't give up or give a damn
You just take me for who I am
And we can get through anything
And baby, we make one hell of a team




Me, you, and Jesus
And we can get through anything

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of Lainey Wilson's song Me, You, and Jesus speak of finding comfort and solace in one's companionship with the people who truly care for them and in their faith in a higher being. The first verse paints a picture of a rough upbringing, with a troubled mother and father, but the singer perseveres and tries to put on a brave front, despite feeling like they're just going through the motions. They save their deepest struggles and fears for their conversation with God. The chorus emphasizes the strength of the bond between the singer, their loved one, and Jesus, all of whom provide support and non-judgmental understanding in the face of the world's challenges. The second verse touches upon the pain inflicted by hurtful words and praises the support of the love interest, who sees the best in them. The bridge serves as a reminder of how the alliance between the singer, the love interest, and Jesus is unbreakable, with the latter being a divine presence that's always at the singer's side, and the former being a heaven-sent guardian who's also willing to sacrifice everything for them.


Overall, the song is a testament to the power of love and spirituality in someone's life and how they can provide the strength needed to overcome any obstacle. It speaks of the importance of finding the right people to be by one's side when things get tough and how faith can guide them through even the darkest moments.


Line by Line Meaning

If I'm being real, I must confess
Admitting to the truth of what's on my chest


Some damn days I'm just trying my best
Struggling to just get out of bed and get dressed


To get out of bed and get half dressed
To overcome the previous day’s stress


Like I didn't spend the whole night crying
Without giving up or trying


My mama's crazy and my daddy's mean
My parents aren't always what they seem


The apple don't fall far from the tree
Being true to our family


Hell, I'd be lying right through my teeth
Denying what's really beneath


If the sun was always shining
Things aren't always fine and dandy


That's the kinda dirt I save for the man upstairs
I keep some secrets just between me and God who cares


Now I'm sleeping in your shirt and you're right there
You help bring me comfort and feel like home no matter where


Y'all just listen and don't judge me
Listening with open arms is all I need you to be


Just shake your head and love me
Expressing concern without any need to agree


When the world comes between us
Despite what the world throws at us


Y'all don't give up or give a damn
You never fall victim to society's ham


You just take me for who I am
Loving me for me is how our relationship began


And I swear we can get through anything
Together with faith and love we can withstand the world's sting


Words can hurt right to the bone
The spoken words can cut deep down to my soul's zone


They type 'em out like sticks and stones
Social media spreads judgement like we’re alone


Might cut me deep but I ain't alone
I know you’ll be here long after the hate has grown


'Cause you always got me
Through thick and thin you're where my heart ought to be


You say I'm pretty to my core
You love every inch of me to my core


My heart is something worth fighting for
My heart is where our love can even the score


If this is all I get, good Lord
Even this love is enough to thank the Almighty Lord


I don't need nobody
I have you and God, all else is nobody


He's up in Heaven, and honey, you're Heaven sent
You are an angel in my life God sent


You would die for me, and He already did
You would be there to the end just like He did


And baby, we make one hell of a team
Together we are unstoppable, it seems

This one’s really special to me. While I was writing this song, I was reminded that I’m never alone. My faith & the folks I’ve got by my side are the two most important things in my life. They are my rock and with them, I can get through anything. I wouldn’t be who I am or where I am today without them. Happy Valentine's Day to you and yours. I’m sharing the day with me and mine ❣
