Bobby Lyrics - Reba Mcentire

(reba mcentire, don schlitz) 

Bobby pleaded guilty to the charges that they read 

As they led him from the courtroom, a young voice turned his head 

A little boy, dressed in blue, was standing at the rail 

He said I hope they kill you, I hope you go to hell 

They put bobby in a jail with forty other men 

They all knew what he had done, they were glad to take him in 

They'd all seen the headlines about bobby and his wife 

How they loved each other, and how he took her life 

Day after day, he sat alone 

Night after night, they'd hear him sing his song (he'd sing) 

Chorus: 

Baby, I'll take care of you, I'll never let you down 

No harm will ever come to you as long as I'm around 

I am not afraid of what people say or do 

The only thing I fear is being here... without you

The little boy dressed up in blue grew up to be a man 

When he fell in love himself, he came to understand 

How it was that bobby took the life they both adored 

Cause bobby couldn't stand to see her suffer anymore 

He took out the papers from the trunk beneath his bed 

And all the years just disappeared as through his tears he read 

The stories of the accident that robbed his mama's mind 

And the man who held her in his arms and chose to cut the line 

And the one about the man who sits alone 

Year after year, singing his song (he'd sing) 

Repeat chorus: 

The young man drove his car up, and parked outside the gate 

They led him to a cold gray room, the guard told him to wait 

When the gaurd brought bobby in, the young man finally knew 

He still missed his mama, but he'd missed his daddy too 

And when the guard left the two of them alone 

He took bobby in his arms, and the young man sang the song

Daddy, I'll take care of you, I'll never let you down 

No harm will ever come to you as long as I'm around 

You have taught me not to fear what people say or do 

The only thing I fear is being here... without you
