Lyrics
These arms
That hang here by my side
These arms that ache to open wide
Are useless arms with nothing left to do
Since these arms
Stopped holding you
These arms are worthless now to me
They let you go so how good could they be
Just foolish arms for which I have no need
A pair of arms that grew weak
And set love free
Reaching out to embrace
A vacant memory
Finding just the empty space
Around what's left of me
Two arms that failed completely
Arms both scarred so deeply
Keep paying love's costs with each tragic sway
Trying meekly to assist
My struggle with the truth
Unable to resist
What tears still make us view
Two arms that failed completely
Arms both scarred so deeply
Keep paying love's costs with each tragic sway
These arms
That hang here by my side
These arms that ache to open wide
Useless arms with nothing left to do
Since these arms
Stopped holding you
Since these arms
Stopped holding you

The modern day king of TRUE country music.

[@zeem3366]

I have to agree with previous comments, he can definitely wear the hell out of a pair of jeans, but it's those baby blues and that haunting twangy voice that just melts me. No one will ever be able to sing like him

[@jaimesinon8110]

Omg I agree

[@chreethomas7077]

He does wear those jeans good and yes those are gorgeous

[@michaelcoyle6964]

Dwight is real country no doubt Buck saw the potential

[@RealTime88]

Michael Coyle I'm going to see Dwight in concert next month!! I really hope he does this awesome song. It got me through a couple break ups as most of his music has.

[@Steacy783NUTS]

DWIGHT saw the same potential of classic then country ! Match made in heaven :)

[@alliepep]

[@BunnyTowne]

Love Dwight he is real country and loved when Buck Owens and he sang together, they were awesome.R.I.P. Buck.Dwight will be around for along time and make you proud.I am

[@RealTime88]

Bunny Towne Dwight is my favorite country singer. I love Garth, Brad & Alan but Dwight is the best singer songwriter and he gives some attitude to country music that I love.

[@grahamcameron7625]

I've been a Dwight fan since 1990. I just love him. Such a great individual performer. Keep socket it to us Dwight.

[@BluJnGrl]

Talented writer, great pipes and the man can certainly fill out a pair of jeans. The real deal.🤩 From: A die hard rock and roller.

[@susansorensen6163]

Saw him in concert and he is the best, love him and his swinging legs. One of my favorites. Keep singing and putting out your music.

[@ryandonovan5205]

Hands down the best and most underrated singer of all time

[@rebagaudet7641]

Ain't that the truth....he is all around a great person .The voice ....THE VOICE....

[@dzidraveveris-akesonveveri9779]

What does this great Artist do with us - that every time he gives us his fine performance we can't forget the song, the tunes he is creating cannot leave our mind for days?!

[@msfelix57]

He's like a cross between Hank Williams Sr and Elvis❤️❤️

[@brendaseager7371]

Such a good singer.

[@llhudson49]

Love this song and the way he smiles, moves and those blue eyes are great, wow

[@kathie554]

"Ok, it's costing some money to talk now." Classic. One of my favorite songs! Great honky tonk tune, with blend of contemporary.

[@SuperPikeville]

Dwight Yoakam has the most amazing voice, its pure country. He is without doubt the most sexiest man alive.

[@gmannfram8682]

He should join up with KENNY CHESNEY they would sound great together

[@donnaburke4878]

I agree totally sexy as HELL !!

[@SPCLPONY]

I liked some of his movie roles also. He does a pretty good 'bad guy.' I just watched Panic Room with Jody Foster again not too long ago. Forest Whittaker and a very young Kristen Stewart were in this movie as well.

[@tylerertley5169]

Gmann Fram yesss! KC and Dwight would be awesome!

[@dwightyoakam1212]

Thanks you for supporting and loving my music. I'm very grateful and appreciate you🖤I would love to hear from you text me .[phone]

[@noahzark6755]

Dwight is the only one who still knows what country music is.

[@wildcolonialboyakawild7465]

Ah no. There's a fair number of artists who know and perform it, but just don't get recognition in the face of the Nashville machine. Steve Earle, John Prine, Iris DeMent, and the extraordinary Emmylou Harris, to name a few. Don't despair, brother.

[@robertmartinez1645]

And let's not forget Alan Jackson...

[@MrDorbel]

Wayne Hancock, Dale Watson, Ray Benson, Marti Brom, still lots of good music, you just have to kiss a lot of toads to get a prince(ss)!

[@1-shotslinger108]

Maybe Jamey Johnson but not too many good new artists .

[@andrewtate9003]

Try some Chris Stapleton you will change your mind

[@neilladd5799]

Empty, lonely arms. Good one. Thanks.

[@1953SM]

I love Dwight Yoakam and always have and always will! Ultimate country cool.

[@calebsmith403]

Dwight Yoakem is really good!!!

[@deonrodden1124]

Just too real for some folks. Reaching out to embrace another memory.

[@doctorwhoize]

George Jones once asked in his song "Who's Gonna Fill Their Shoe's" well Dwight is the only one to do just that. Not all this new. Country crap that's out there now. Keep on Dwight, just keep on . . .

[@patrickknowles2016]

Got that right!

[@izzhipp4971]

I'm afraid nobody will fill their shoes ! Everrrr

[@rebagaudet7641]

I hope he knows all the people love him...iv never bought records,just listened to the radio,so I didn't buy the song,but I have loved them all. They stopped makeing records, Now they make them again. I'm so old...love Dwight

[@quentinwade8506]

@@izzhipp4971 Did you not read the post? Dwight has filled those shoes well

[@David_Theisen]

Dwight, Travis Tritt, Toby Keith, Garth Brooks and Alan Jackson have most definitely filled those shoes!! And I am going to mention that Zac Brown Band are the best newer country artists out there! And Garth just put a new album out this last year

[@cindyallen9088]

Dwight Yoakam is the best country singer and actor bar none ?😀
