I Got You Babe Lyrics

(feat. Chrissie Hynde) They say we're young and we don't know Won't find out till we grow Well I don't know why that's true Cause you got me baby, I got you Babe, I got you babe, I got you, Babe. They say our love won't pay the rent Before it's earn'd our money's always spent I guess that's so, we don't have a pot But at least I'm sure of all the things we got Babe, I got you babe, I got you, Babe. I got flowers in the spring I got you, you wear my ring And when I'm sad, you're a clown And if I get scared you're always around And then they say your hair's too long But I don't care, with you I can't do wrong Then put your warm little hand in mine There ain't no hill or mountain we can't climb Babe, I got you babe, I got you, Babe. I got you to hold my I got you to understand I got you to walk with me I got you to talk with I got you to kiss goodnight I got you to hold me tight I got you I won't let go I got you who loves me so I got you, babe

Meaning of I Got You Babe

“I Got You Babe” by UB40 is a comforting declaration of unwavering love and support amidst practical concerns. The lyrics express a simple, almost naive joy in companionship, acknowledging external doubts – “They say we’re young and we don't know” – but firmly rejecting them with the assurance that they have each other. It’s about finding solace and strength in a relationship, particularly when facing financial hardship (“won't find out till we grow,” “don't have a pot”). The song is filled with small, endearing moments – flowers, rings, laughter – highlighting the comfort found in shared experiences and emotional connection. Chrissie Hynde’s backing vocals reinforce this feeling of security and devotion, emphasizing the singer's complete reliance on their beloved, promising steadfastness through any challenge, “There ain't no hill or mountain we can't climb.” Ultimately, it’s a heartfelt plea for enduring love and mutual support.
