Rebound
Drew Baldridge feat. Emily Weisband Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Oh how convenient
You think I'm here for you
Got a history of lenience
Of letting you do what you do
My friend done called and said you be calling
Soon as I hung up my phone was ringin'
With your number that I deleted
A mistake I ain't repeat'n

Now that he's gone
You wanna get in my car
Wanna steal my sheets
Go a little too far
You're wrong if you think you can dip out like ya did, say you're over him
Kissin' ya kissin' ya
So you want me kissin' ya huggin' ya lovin' ya
Well baby I ain't trippin' over all the words that your throwin' out
I ain't your rebound

Don't you think we could it feels so good
Baby we should
Your playing it cool
With the sweet talk on your lips
But I ain't a fool nah
Ya I know what this is
Now that he's gone
You wanna get in my car
Wanna steal my sheets
Go a little too far
You're wrong if you think you can dip out like ya did
Say you're over him
Kissin' ya kissin' ya
So you want me kissin' ya huggin' ya lovin' ya
Well baby I ain't trippin' over all the words that your throwin' out
I ain't your rebound
See what it means to do you tonight
I ain't your rebound

I hope that you move on but I ain't your ride
Ain't your bounce back, go back
To keep him off your mind, no

'Cause now that he's gone
You wanna get in my car
Wanna steal my sheets
Go a little too far
You're wrong if you think you can dip out like ya did, say you're over him
Kissin' ya kissin' ya
So you want me kissin' ya huggin' ya lovin' ya
Well baby I ain't trippin' over all the words that your throwing out
I ain't your rebound
Don't you think we could
It feels so good
Baby we should
I ain't your rebound
Baby don't you miss the taste of my kiss I know you want this




I ain't your rebound (just give me one night let me show you why it's different this time)
I ain't your rebound

I can't honestly believe this is 6 years old! Wow time flies and still one of the best songs out there.

@countryradiousa6306

This song is truly one of country music’s best-kept secrets of the past few years. Freaking amazing record. Probably one of my 10 favorite duets of the past decade.

@sallynaifeh

@drewbaldridge2296

Thank you so much for your support

@brittanyhall7750

I love this so much. It really claws at the heart. You can feel his frustration and heart break at her hurtful ways. Really captures a lot of emotions
