Lyrics The Wood Brothers

The Wood Brothers

Lovin' Arms

Riding a big jet plane

Crying into your sleeve

'Cause you miss those lovin' arms

A lullaby keeps on playing

You thinking it's a dream

'Cause you miss those lovin' arms

And you got a good mind to pray

They say somebody's playing, but what if he's got a slippery hand

Well, it's a sad face you wear

Like a burned out sun

'Cause you miss those lovin' arms

Think a grown man will care

About his boot lace undone

But you just miss those lovin' arms

Yeah, you miss those lovin' arms

And you got a good mind to pray

They say somebody playing but what if he's got slippery hands

God damn

You're a boy not a man

When you miss those lovin' arms

Well, some day

When you're up there flyin'

And you miss those lovin' arms

It isn't so far away

The sweet lullaby

When you miss those lovin' arms
