Reba McEntire - Bobby 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 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)

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 herewithout 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 sit's alone
Year after year, singing 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 being herewithout 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 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 herewithout you
