Ricochet

They warned me when you kissed me, your love would ricochet

Your lips would find another, and your heart would go astray

I thought that I could hold you with all my many charms

But then one day you ricocheted to someone else's arms

And, baby, I don't want a ricochet romance, I don't want a ricochet love

If you're careless with your kisses, find another turtle dove

I can't live on ricochet romance, no, no, not me

If you're gonna ricochet, baby, I'm gonna set you free

I knew the day I met you, you had a rovin' eye

I thought that I could hold you, what a fool I was to try

You promised you'd be faithful, and you would never stray

Then like a rifle bullet, you began to ricochet

And, baby, I don't want a ricochet romance, I don't want a ricochet love

If you're careless with your kisses, find another turtle dove

I can't live on ricochet romance, no, no, not me

If you're gonna ricochet, baby, I'm gonna set you free

When you announced our wedding, you made me mighty proud

I whispered, "Two was company" but you preferred a crowd

You buzzed around the other girls just like a busy bee

And when you finished buzzin', cousin, you buzzed right back to me

And, baby, I don't want a ricochet romance, I don't want a ricochet love

If you're careless with your kisses, find another turtle dove

I can't live on ricochet romance, no, no, not me

If you're gonna ricochet, baby, I'm gonna set you free

If you're gonna ricochet, baby, I'm gonna set you free
