Richard Thompson - Mr Rebound lyrics

My sweetheart, she bounced right out of my arms She was gone before I remembered to cling Was I moving too slowly to catch her Or was she by nature a slippery thing Into the arms of Mr. Rebound Into the arms of clean up Joe Into the arms of Mr. Rebound Mr. Rebound, as if I didn't know As if I didn't know He'll give her laughs and he'll give her dreams I gave her the kids and the pots and pans He'll do for the dash and he'll do for the sprint But he won't do for a marathon man Into the arms of Mr. Rebound Into the arms of clean up Joe Into the arms of Mr. Rebound Mr. Rebound, as if I didn't know As if I didn't know I know for a fact, she ain't coming back To tell you the truth, I'm a little bit glad She may be blind with the things on her mind But how can she stand to touch something that bad Into the arms of Mr. Rebound Into the arms of clean up Joe Into the arms of Mr. Rebound Mr. Rebound, as if I didn't know Into the arms of Mr. Rebound Into the arms of clean up Joe Into the arms of Mr. Rebound Mr. Rebound, as if I didn't know As if I didn't know As if I didn't know
