披頭四成員保羅·麥卡尼所創作的排行榜九周冠軍曲，是披頭四所有歌曲中排行榜最佳成績的歌曲，於1968年發行。當時另一位成員約翰·藍儂與第一任妻子Cynthia離婚 (小三是才女-小野洋子-Yoko Ono) ，麥卡尼探望藍儂兒子朱利安(Julian)母子後，保羅·麥卡尼透過這首歌鼓勵朱利安勇敢面對現實。這首歌的原名是《Hey Julian》，為了唱起來順口，後來改為《Hey Jules》，最終變成《Hey Jude》。
《Hey Jude》原本收錄進同名專輯《The Beatles》(最終未收入此專輯)，而是作為單曲發行（B面是藍儂創作的《Revolution》），並迅速成為了當年的冠軍單曲。《Hey Jude》原曲長7分11秒，後來又有了更短的版本，因為許多電台不願播放這麼長的歌曲。2012年倫敦奧運會上作為壓軸演出的保羅·麥卡尼演唱了這首歌曲。
Hey Jude, don't make it bad.
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.
Na na na na na na, na na na, hey Jude
