Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Take a sad song and make it better.
Remember to let her into your heart,
Then you can start to make it better.
Hey Jude, don't be afraid.
You were made to go out and get her.
The minute you let her under your skin,
Then you begin to make it better.
And anytime you feel the pain, hey Jude, refrain,
Don't carry the world upon your shoulders.
For well you know that it's a fool who plays it cool
By making his world a little colder.
Hey Jude, don't let me down.
You have found her, now go and get her.
Remember to let her into your heart,
Then you can start to make it better.
So let it out and let it in, hey Jude, begin,
You're waiting for someone to perform with.
And don't you know that it's just you, hey Jude, you'll do,
The movement you need is on your shoulder.
Hey Jude, don't make it bad.
Take a sad song and make it better.
Remember to let her under your skin,
Then you'll begin to make it
Better better better better better better, oh.
Da da da da da da, da da da, hey Jude
The lyrics to "Hey Jude" by The Beatles, written by Paul McCartney, are full of uplifting advice and encouragement for someone who is going through a difficult time. The song is believed to be written for Julian Lennon, the son of John Lennon, during his parents' divorce.

It is a reminder to the person to open their heart and let love in, which will then help them improve their situation.
The second verse emphasizes the importance of not being afraid and taking action to pursue love. The line "The minute you let her under your skin, then you begin to make it better" suggests that once the person allows themselves to be vulnerable and open to new possibilities, they can start to find happiness and make things better in their life.
The song also addresses the pain that the person may be feeling. The lines "And anytime you feel the pain, hey Jude, refrain, don't carry the world upon your shoulders" advise them to not bear the burden alone and not to isolate themselves in their pain. It encourages seeking support from others rather than trying to cope with everything alone.
The repeated line "Hey Jude, don't let me down" expresses the trust and belief the singer has in the person to find love and improve their situation. It serves as a reminder to keep pushing forward and not to give up.
Overall, "Hey Jude" is a powerful anthem of hope, offering support and guidance to someone going through a difficult time. It encourages them to transform their sadness, let love in, and take action to make their life better.
