Jo Dee Messina - Stand Beside Me Lyrics
He left me cryin' late one Sunday night outside of Boulder
He said he had to find himself out on the road
I guess when love goes wrong
You've gotta learn to be strong
I ended up south of Memphis workin' down in Riverside
I may not be so lucky in love
But the one thing I'm sure of
I want a man that stands beside me
Not in front of or behind me
Give me two arms that want to hold me not own me
And I'll give all the love in my heart
Stand beside me
Be true don't tell lies to me
I want a man that who stands beside me
I didn't expect to see him one hot July morning
His hair was longer but his eyes were the same old blue
He said, I've missed you for so long. Oh baby, what can I do
I said, I want a man that stands beside me
Not in front of or behind me
Give me two arms that want to hold me not own me
And I'll give all the love in my heart
It's hard to tell him no when I want him so bad
But I've got to be true to my heart This time
I'm not lookin' for a fantasy
I want a man who stands beside me
I want a man
Who stands beside me
Stand beside me
Stand beside me

Jo Dee Messina Stand Beside Me Comments
If real men out there could only truly grasp this concept of this song my god, life & love would be so much easier. But never, no
Very under appreciated song! One of my all-time favs of the 90's! Always gave me a certain feeling when driving down the highway. Can't explain it.
God,...she makes Boulder Colorado sound so sad.
I miss this real country compared to the crap today they claim is country
she is one beautiful lady
great song everyone needs someone beside them not in front of them nor standing behind them but beside them that is what everyone needs I know I do .
This is my jam! Timeless...
2019 still love this song
Great song, ugly actor...Guess not everyone could land Matthew McConaughey. (Trisha Yearwood, Walkaway Joe) you're welcome 😉
What an old school singer she is. Thanks for the music and memories.
That song is true
This tune was written by a man.
I love this song because I have now found my soulmate and she is standing right beside me.Ginger i will always love you.
As my time wonders on i still need a lady that'll stand beside me
Don't know how tf I came across this years ago. But after the first listen I was hooked. Black girl who loves Tupac was walking around singing Jo Dee LoL. And I don't care, still love this and other country songs. Thankful for whoever broadened my musical tastes💕
Lmfao! I'm a white girl who loves Tupac AND Jo Dee! Girl...this is for US ❤ All the broken hearts & bs.
This song goes out to parks.
And My Baby Sister ❤️🙏💔
This reminds Me of My Mama ❤️🙏🙏🙏💔
She says it all
This song has been speaking to me lately I want a man that stands beside me 💙💖💖💙💜
I remember this song from when I was a kid. It's just one of them that brings back good memories. I wish I could go back to then. Riding in the back of my grandma's truck. I'll forever miss that woman.
To me , this song is an anthem of a very good, emotionally healthy, grounded... extremely wonderful woman who was with the wrong man. And you hope that she finds herself with a man who actually deserves her, A man who will stand beside her.
Am I the only one who thinks that Jo Dee Messina is so underrated? I think she deserves better
naquiyankee You’re 100% correct
Most definitely!
You've got to LEARN to be STRONG!
I love the song
Still loving this song in 2019. 😍😍
Lyle your officers should get a refresher course in ettiquite..
This could be the song of my life........
And I survived. May 7 2019.
That's all I ever asked
The song is my life but one thing I'm sure of is I WANT A MAN TO STAND BESIDE ME.
i ll give my life 4 love for a women
This song will spin the heads of the independent woman today lol
Sometimes we're meant to stand alone...with the angels watching over us and surrounding us 😊😘😉😎😍😑🤨🙄😏 anger, sorrow, laughter, fear, love...hell its life!!! Better to live it then to remain an empty bottle behind a locked door or chasing rabbits down holes and losing yourself...truth comes from God the true and only healer of the broken hearted... he's the only handyman I need
All guys should listen to this
This is one of my favourite songs!
Amazing singer I love all of her songs.. I listen to her to all the time
Right dam right
Yes you sure did
In someone else's arms
Now u looking for me
Keep looking you lost our life's future in the arms of your bfs girl
Swallow that
2019????.
"You gotta learn to be strong"......
This song speaks volumes to many women it is a way to most ladies hearts. Jo Dee sounds so beautiful singing it. She is also very beautiful.
one of the best country hit of alltime
Love this song . I miss Jo Dee I hope her health is better.
Volume?
9/23^18
Jo Dee where have you been?
I wish I had that too.
Bitch no one cares
@Joshua Cephas. What a fucking party crasher you are, kiss my ass!
Thank you for all the wonderful songs, Jo Dee. I'm still enjoying each one.
I love JoDee but she has some of the most cliche' videos.
Daniel, you DEMANDED my love and respect, BUT YOU REFUSED TO GIVE THE SAME,EVEN IN OUR MARRIAGE VOWS BEFORE GOD, IT TURNS OUT. WHY "CLAIM" YOU LOVE ME NOW, SINCE OUR WEDDING IN MAY 1984?
Tochey ladies, great song !
Beautiful red hair and eye so green they could kill you !!!
She is such an inspiration of integrity and doing what’s right even when it’s hard
I have always been a huge fan of hers! I adore all her music, but this song is her masterpiece! She is truly an amazing lady!🌹
This song is one of the best examples of feminism in country music. Unfortunately, you don't hear that much on the radio these days. All women are good for now is sad break up songs and entertainment for drunk men.
I love this song! 💙
Every man should listen to this song
Benjie Fields you sure got that right !!!
It won't happen..
awsome song please come down under rock on
Gosh my favorite by her!!!
My husband emotionally abuses me I have no love in my life. He never loved me.
Well I hope you left him I been there they are not men if they hurt you or your feelings.. Someone always cones a long better
Oh...what a so under rated artist...so great!
Seriously!
I miss this
She has such a beautiful SOLID voice!
Stacy Fletcher i would say my favorite video of hers is im alright cause of the fact she had leather pants on in that. I just love her music it's all good, almost every guy I met had a huge crush on her like me haha
And still is!
One of the greatest country artist,and songs EVER! Every good girl deserves a good man.
Would LOVE to find him...
I just love her voice, the way it cracks under control
All the older videos have so much more meaning to them.
Nikea Gouff the newer videos of today have just as much meaning
Nikea Gouff I completely agree with you.
right? they all had a story.
Katie Trimue assuming you’re all associating the new MV’s of today’s era with those mumble raps, could rather you elaborate? Most of the new MV’s today contain just as much meaning with oldschool, or might even contain more. Who knows? Do your research before you blatantly label today’s MV as “meaningless”.
So true!
One of my absolute favorite songs.
I want a woman to stand beside me
❤❤❤
Stand beside...not in front of or behind me!!
Hope you found her
this will always be a classic. to bad country has took a leap outside of country. pop diva bs... it's embarrassing to this level.
Jon Wright BITCH IT WILL NEVER "TAKE A LEAP OUT OF COUNTRY" FUCKING DUMB SHIT. TODAY'S COUNTRY IS LITERALLY JUST AS COUNTRY AS THIS ONE SONG FROM THIS ONE ARTIST. IF YOU THINK TODAY'S COUNTRY IS POP WHICH IT COULD NEVER SOUND POP TODAY IF IT TRIED THAT MEANS YOU THINK THIS SONG IS POP
Jon Wright Amen to that! The '90s truly was the last good decade of country music.
Damn listening to Jo Dee Messina Reminds me why i Love her and Reba Mccentire so Damn Much
Me 2 a good one than heck one
Miss this real talk . this is real music. Something that could give you chills ..
Great voice !!
Love me some Jo Dee! Sorry to hear about this cancer diagnosis-you'll beat this horrendous disease!
Literally saw her three hours ago at spencer fair in mass she's incredible and beyond beautiful and strong love that she's from mass
I'm seeing her next week at our local fair so damn excited
What is she doing these days? ??? I absolutely love her voice
Karen Darke look up "bigger than this" just Wow!
i finally have this
Now that im older I relate so much to it then i did but now i get it n agree!
oh my gosh I love this song I can listen to it all day long over and over
One of the top singers-- beautiful song
1998 BIG COUNTRY SMASH THE WENT TOP 40 ALSO..
Can't believe I forgot about Jo Dee. From 1998 to 2000 she was all over CMT and I loved her songs. Never bought an album though. Was reminded of her last night and bought her greatest hits off iTunes. Missed her songs and voice.
Support4MySingers she was one of my favourite singers at that time and I bought "I'm Alright" with this song on it. Great gem :)
I owned all of them and REALLY need to find them...
She actually debuted in 1995 with heads Carolina tales California offer debut album
I just went through a break up and my mom told me to look up this song....this really describes my situation and I love it
One reason I loved this song (as a younger person) was because she mentioned Boulder and I'm from Colorado myself.
But these days I love this song because of the message it brings.
I am so glad that I found that guy in my fiance.
Jo Dee is one of the best concerts I have ever been too. I totally recommend seeing her live.
great song..I'd stand beside her any day
Kathy Leigh. What is your favorite video of hers ? I like her im alright video and her other vid do you wanna make something of it
I like the i'm alright video too
My wife loves this!
her voice is so beautiful💜
She was such a good singer. I would throw her cd in the player, turn up the volume, and drive...
was? She still is!
Very true....
I married one.
she was my idol growin up
muito boa a música 😥
a number 1 hit in 1999.
