Mr Rebound Lyrics - Live From Austin, Tx - Richard Thompson

My sweetheart she bounced right out of my arms 

She was gone before I remembered to cling 

Did I reach out 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 

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

I know for a fact that 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
