The Emptiest Arms in the World Songtext
von Merle Haggard and The Strangers

I only call when I′ve had that one too many
And my lonely room goes spinning in a whirl
And tonight, I couldn't even find my pillow
I′ve got the emptiest arms in the world


I no longer wear the gold band on my finger
And from time to time, I find myself a girl
But when I realize that she's not you I'm holding
I′ve got the emptiest arms in the world

My empty arms won′t ever hold you close again
And these cheap hotels
They're like a prison cell that keeps closin′ in
'Cause you alone can fill this lonely feelin′
Of the emptiest arms in the world
'Cause you alone can fill this empty feelin′
Of the emptiest arms in the world
