The song Just The Two Of Us is a song performed by Will Smith. It is the second single from his first solo album Big Willie Style. The song is about how a father thinks about his son, in the point of view of Will Smith to his son. The song was inspired by Bill Withers' song with the same title and it includes samples with some of the lyrics used in Smith's version. However, Smith changed it from a love song to a father-to-son song.

Will Smith originally wrote a children's book with the same title and lyrics. In his album, he sang it in rap form. The song is featured on various collections like iTunes Music Store's Father's Day music collection.

There is a parody of the song sang by Dr. Evil (Mike Myers) in the movie Austin Powers: The Spy Who Shagged Me using the same rhythm and some verses by Will Smith.
