Tammy Wynette – You And Me, is a song written by Billy Sherrill and George Richey, and recorded by American country music artist Tammy Wynette. It was released in July 1976 as the first single and title track from the album You and Me. The song was Wynette’s sixteenth and final number one country hit as a solo artist. The single stayed at number one for two weeks and spent a total of twelve weeks on the country chart.
According to Richey in a 1987 interview, the lyrics were inspired by his own (at the time) secret admiration for Wynette, who was still recovering from the fallout of her recent divorce from George Jones. The pair became close friends and eventually married two years later.

Tammy Wynette – You And Me Lyrics
Well we found a life together and it’s a gonna last forever
Nothing can hurt me now cause you are mine
We put away all of our sadness we’re walking every day with gladness
You and me together all the time
Well she wants to love me a little bit better it’s okay I’m gonna let her
When he holds me I can feel he’s hard giving love’s true and real
Oh now we got a little bitty baby we’re happy and we don’t mean maybe
You and me together all the time
[ steel ]
Well we’ll build a little house in the country and we’ll go to church every Sunday
We got each other and we don’t need a thing
We start every day with a sweet kiss and that’s one thing we wouldn’t miss
You and me together making life sweet
Well she wants to love me…
You and me together all the time
GENIUS
