Bobby

In the style of

Reba McEntire

Lyrics

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 locked bobby
in a jail
with forty other men
they all knew
what he'd 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 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 bein' 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

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 bein' here
without you

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 guard
brought bobby in
the young man
finally knew
he still missed
his mama
but he'd missed
his daddy too

when the guard left
the two of them alone
he took bobby
in his arms
and the young man
sang his 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
and the only thing
that hurts
is bein' here
without you
