Select language to translate this lyric
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
