Just Do It
Sam Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

My eyes, they can look see
Other guys, that are cuter
And my ears, they can look hear
My friends say
I should walk away

But my heart, it won't do babe
It won't do, without you
My doggone heart, it won't do babe
It just won't do, without you

My knees they don't go weak
They don't go giddy-up
When you don't call me
And my head
It doesn't spin
So don't try me, with your sweet nothings

But my heart, it won't do babe
It won't do, without you
My doggone heart, it won't do babe
It just won't do, without you

My mind is buggin' out
When you think you're it
See me run, lickety-split
And my toes, watch them curl
So don't call me babe, 'cause I ain't your little girl

But my heart, it won't do babe
It won't do, without you
My doggone heart, it won't do babe
It just won't do, without you

La, la, la, la, la

My mind is buggin' out
When you think your're it
See me run, lickety-split
And my toes, watch them curl
So don't call me babe 'cause I ain't your little girl

But my heart, it won't do babe
It won't do, without you
My doggone heart, it won't do babe
It just won't do, without you

Overall Meaning

The lyrics describe a situation where the singer is aware that there are other guys who may be considered cuter than her partner. Her friends advise her to walk away but despite being nonchalant about the situation, the singer's heart refuses to let go. She acknowledges that her knees don't go weak or her head doesn't spin when her partner doesn't call her or try to woo her with sweet nothings. She warns her partner that she is not a little girl and her toes curling doesn't mean that they should call her 'babe'. However, her heart is steadfast and refuses to let go of her partner. The repetition of “It won’t do babe” emphasizes the point that no matter what, the singer cannot function without her partner in her life.
