does anyone know what "i dont need no arms around me" means???

he doesnt need to be locked up in the asylum. straight jackets pretty much make you hug yourself, and hes not insane.

Not Valid

"I don't need no arms around me" isn't referring to straitjacket arms,it's referring to the arms of a lover or friend. He's lost his wife by this point, and has convinced himself he doesn't need love or companionship.

Not Valid

@zack_best Double negative i.e he does need arms around him
