Reba Mcentire - Bobby Lyrics

Reba Mcentire - Bobby Video

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 jail with forty other men
They all knew what he had done, and 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 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 son (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 young man drove his car up, sand parked outside the gate
They lead him to a cold grey 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 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

Reba Mcentire - Five Hundred Miles Away From Home Lyrics

Reba Mcentire - Five Hundred Miles Away From Home Video

Tear drops fell on mama's note
When I read the things she wrote
She said, we miss you girl
We love you come on home
Well I didn't have to pack
I had it all right on my back
Now I'm five hundred miles away from home
 
Chorus:
Away from home, away from home
Cold and tired and all alone
Yes, I'm five hundred miles away from home
 
It's hard to tell the state I'm in
Where I'm going, where I've been
But there's a dream I've been following so long
If mama knew the things I've done
She'd forgive them every one
But I'm still five hundred miles away from home
 
Repeat chorus
 
Can't remember when I ate it's just thumb and walk and wait
And I'm still five hundred miles away from home
If my luck had been just right I'd be with them all tonight
But I'm still five hundred miles away from home
 
Repeat chorus
 
Lord, I'm still five hundred miles away from home
