Morgan Wallen delivered “Just in Case” on March 21, 2025, via Big Loud / Republic / Mercury Records, as the fourth single off his album I’m The Problem. The song was co-produced by Joey Moi and Charlie Handsome, and features writing credits from Wallen, John Byron, Jacob Kasher Hindlin, Ryan Vojtesak, Josh Thompson, Blake Pendergrass, and Alex Bak.
“Just in Case” offers a mix of strength and vulnerability: Wallen balances moving on from a past love while never quite letting go. Lyrically, he expresses hesitation to fully fall back into love, keeping walls up “just in case” things don’t work out again. The production is smooth and introspective, matching the emotional tone of the lyrics.
Fans can stream “Just in Case” across major platforms via I’m The Problem, and look out for mp3 download options from official digital retailers. This track gives listeners a deeper window into Wallen’s journey—one of healing, doubt, and the fine line between hope and restraint.
just in case lyrics
I ain’t sayin’ that I always sleep alone I ain’t sayin’ that I ain’t met no one else Done a little bit of midnight movin’ on And I ain’t sayin’ when I do that it don’t help Leave with someone, I don’t know her name Pull her real close, but I leave some space And I could forget you, girl, for good Even though I should
I never let my heart go all the way Every time I try, I just hit the brakes And there’s always a couple tryna take your place But I never fall in love, baby, just in case You wake me up wantin’ me out of the blue You lay down needin’ what I used to do Yeah, every now and then, I go get a taste But I never fall in love, baby, just in case Just in case
I always take it to the edge, then I back it up They don’t know I got a reason for actin’ up I ain’t felt a damn thing, baby, after us Yeah, I’m just hopin’ you’ll come back to us That’s wishful thinkin’, baby honestly But I know you ain’t forgotten me
So I never let my heart go all the way Every time I try, I just hit the brakes And there’s always a couple tryna take your place But I never fall in love, baby, just in case You wake up wantin’ me out of the blue You lay down needin’ what I used to do Yeah, every now and then, I go get a taste But I never fall in love, baby, just in case Just in case
Leave with someone, I don’t know her name Pull her real close, but I leave some space Yeah, I could have three words on my tongue But I won’t ever say ’em
‘Cause I never let my heart go all the way Every time I try, I just hit the brakes And there’s always a couple tryna take your place But I never fall in love, baby, just in case You wake up wantin’ me out of the blue You lay down needin’ what I used to do Yeah, every now and then, I go get a taste But I never fall in love, baby, just in case Just in case
