Bobby’s arms they are warm when he holds me
Bobby’s arms always comfort and console me
When I’m in his arms hold tight I know everything’s all right
Just as long as I’m inside Bobby’s arms
Bobby’s arms always welcome me inside Bobby’s arms always hold me when I cry
Bobby’s arms always shelter from life’s storms and I feel so safe in Bobby’s arms

Bobby’s arms they are strong but they’re tender
Bobby’s arms reach to me and I surrender
When he reaches out to me I’m never out of reach
And I always want to be in Bobby’s arms
Bobby’s arms always welcome…
In Bobby’s arms
