Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Sean hear ya boy case but I'm blowin' in the wind
I got my young boy Jesse gettin' at the Nizzy
Don't you be with me and we be gettin' undressed
What you see somethin' that you need
Spend the night with me and I'll rock you
Oh believe you ain't been up tree
She scrambled for the camera
I got her blowin' in the wind like I'm nirvana
Wait a minute I don't think y'all heard me I said nirvana
That means I'm rockin' in the rocks in Montana
All I wanna do is get at your love like I see baby
Eat at your heart like the drums on my beat baby
You and me we gonna travel like a visa
And I ain't worried 'bout what I'm spendin' either
[Chorus]
And I'ma rock you I gotta see that hey hey hey
Girl I'll rock you come give me some of that hey hey hey hey
You want a love and I just wanna feel it for the night
Pull you somethin' that'll make sure you'll be feelin' alright

"Rock You" by Jesse McCartney is a song that talks about the singer's desire to spend the night with his love interest and rock her world. The opening verse mentions something being in the pen, which could refer to the songwriter's journal or notebook where he keeps his ideas. He then talks about his colleague Sean who is blowing in the wind. The second line is a pun that refers to the song "Blowin' in the Wind" by Bob Dylan. The next line talks about Jesse McCartney, who the songwriter has entrusted to get at the Nizzy. "Nizzy" could mean "nervous" or "anxiety," although the actual meaning is unclear. The last line talks about getting undressed with the love interest, emphasizing their physical attraction to each other.
The chorus talks about how the singer will rock his love interest's world if she spends the night with him. He asserts that she hasn't been up a tree until she follows him and that it will be an unforgettable experience. The second verse starts with the love interest scrambling for the camera, which can be interpreted as her wanting to capture their memories together. The singer then talks about how he is rockin' like Nirvana, referencing Kurt Cobain's legendary band. He repeats the word "nirvana" to emphasize his point. The final lines of the verse talk about his desire to spend the night with his love interest and travel with her like a visa, stating that he isn't worried about the cost.
