Let's Just Do It
Joe Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

You and me, girl - it's just right
So, why do you deny (how you feel?) (Yeah, listen, girl)
You should be up in my arms at night
And by my side (it's the way it should be; now, listen)

We can talk about this forever
Or we can just do what we know is right
So, let's just move on 'cause we got love to make, ah

Let's do this tonight
Don't put up a fight

Gotta make you believe that
You and me together would feel so good
Best believe it
I know you can see that
You and me together would feel so good
Best believe it
So, let's just do it

Baby, you and me fit hand in glove
I'm in love
You're in love
Ain't it good to be here?
All my life, girl
I've been searching for the perfect one to be with me
Could you be her?

Oh, why deny how you really feel inside?
'Cause, baby, all I really want to do is love you
And I swear that it's gonna feel, baby
Feel so good

[Fabolous]
Now, if you be my B-A-B-Y
I can be your P-A-P-I
I need a girl to J me
Sorta like Beyonce did to Jay-Z
Kinda like Janet J did to J-D
And maybe you can do F-A-B
Maybe, baby, trying to say we
Don't feel right in the back of that, maybe
Yeah, and they want to convince me
That we don't look good on the front of the Bentley
So, let's just do it
Dress fresh to it
SF to it with the necklace through it
Wake up in the morning, eatin' breakfast to it
Or keep trying to get up on the guest list to it
J-O-E, and they know me

Keep figures
Keep niggas on the J-O-B, yeah

Overall Meaning

The song Let's Just Do It by Joe feat. Fabolous is about a man who is in love with a woman, but she is hesitant to accept his feelings or be with him. The first verse is a declaration of love - the man knows that it's right for him and the girl to be together, and he wants her to stop denying her feelings and be by his side. He encourages her not to overthink things and do what they both know is right. The chorus reinforces this point, that they can talk about it forever, or they can just do what feels natural and move on to making love. He pleads with her not to put up a fight, but to trust in the love they share.

In the second verse, the man goes further to show his affection for the woman. He says that they fit perfectly together and how good it would feel to be with her. He asks her not to deny her feelings and take the chance to be with him. The rap verse by Fabolous is a playful addition to the song, where he hints at forming a power couple similar to Jay-Z and Beyonce or Janet Jackson and Jermaine Dupri. He encourages the girl to say yes and embrace the opportunity to be with him.

Now, if you be my B-A-B-Y
If you become my baby

I can be your P-A-P-I
I can be your daddy

I need a girl to J me
I need a girl to complement me

Sorta like Beyonce did to Jay-Z
Like how Beyonce and Jay-Z complement each other

Kinda like Janet J did to J-D
Like how Janet Jackson and Jermaine Dupri complement each other

And maybe you can do F-A-B
And maybe you can complement me (Fab)

Maybe, baby, trying to say we
Maybe we should try being together

Don't feel right in the back of that, maybe
Maybe it doesn't feel right with anyone else

Yeah, and they want to convince me
Others want to persuade me

That we don't look good on the front of the Bentley
That we don't look good together

So, let's just do it
Let's just be together

Dress fresh to it
Dress nicely for the occasion

SF to it with the necklace through it
Repping San Francisco (SF) while wearing a necklace

Wake up in the morning, eatin' breakfast to it
Enjoying breakfast together in the morning

Or keep trying to get up on the guest list to it
Or try to party with other people instead

J-O-E, and they know me
People know me (Joe)

Keep figures
Making money

Keep niggas on the J-O-B, yeah
Keeping people working for me
