[Intro: The Jackson 5, Michael Jackson]
So glad (So glad), so glad (So glad), so glad
To be back in your arms

[Instrumental]

To be back in your arms
So glad (So glad), so glad (So glad), so glad
To be back in your arms
Thank you, baby (Thank you, baby)
Thank you, baby
Be back where I belong

[Verse 1: Michael Jackson]
Oh, I went out to do my thing
And I was totally rejected
I put you down for love unknown
But it wasn't what I expected
So frightened and confused
I came running back to you
I got right down on my knees
And said "Darling, won't you please
I don't know why you did it
But I'm not too proud to admit it, baby"

[Chorus: Jackson 5, Michael Jackson]
Thank you, baby
Thank you, baby
Back where I belong
It's great to be here (Great to be here), ooh-ooh
It's great to be here in your arms
Back where I belong
[Verse 2: Michael Jackson]
Adventure grabbed my heart
And took me away from you, honey
I met all kinds of pretty girls
In every town that I passed through
But that fiery señorita
Burned me down in Mexico
And I got kisses cold as ice
From my Alaskan Eskimo
I feel guilty and ashamed
But I'm gonna say it just the same, baby

[Chorus: Jackson 5, Michael Jackson]
Thank you, baby
Thank you, baby, yeah
Back where I belong
It's great to be here (Great to be here), ooh-ooh
It's great to be here in your arms

[Instrumental]

[Bridge: Michael Jackson, The Jackson 5]
Yeah, baby

[Instrumental]
Yeah, baby
(So glad) So glad, (So glad) so glad
(So glad to be back in your arms)

[Chorus: Michael Jackson, The Jackson 5]
It's great to be here (Great to be here)
It's great to be here in your arms
(Back where I belong)
Baby, baby, baby, baby, oh
It's great to be here (Great to be here), ooh-ooh
It's great to be here in your arms, yeah
(Back where I belong)
It's great to be here (Great to be here)
It's great to be here in your arms
Baby, baby, baby, baby, yeah
(Back where I belong)
It's great to be here (Great to be here)
It's great to be here in your arms
(Right where I belong) I'm so glad
It's great to be here (Great to be here), ooh-ooh
It's great to be here in your arms
Baby, baby, baby, baby, oh
(Back where I belong)
It's great to be here (Great to be here)
It's great to be here in your arms
(Back where I belong) I'm so glad
Ooh, it's great to be here (Great to be here)
Ooh, it's great to be here, ooh-ooh, yeah
(Back where I belong) I'm so glad
It's great to be here (Great to be here)
It's great to be here in your arms, baby
(Back where I belong)
[Outro: Michael Jackson, The Jackson 5]
Thank you, baby, ooh
Thank you, baby, ooh
Darling, oh-oh-oh-oh, thank you, back in your arms
Darling, oh-oh-oh-oh, thank you, back in your arms
Darling, oh-oh-oh-oh, thank you, back in your arms

[Instrumental]
