Dave & Brian Red Rover Lyrics

(Verse 1)

Saw her on the sidewalk selling lemonade
Her name was Jessica, we were in the third grade
She had style, she was cute
In her stonewashed jeans and her jelly shoes

Within a week, I was callin' her my girlfriend
That's when I started to neglect my teddy Rufspin
We spent a lot of time talkin' on the phone
And watchin' classic films like Home Alone

She put Bryan Adams on a mixed tape for me
Then in fourth grade she started to ignore me
She got into makeup, I got into kickball
It was a messy breakup

(Chorus)

Red Rover (Red Rover)
Me and Jessica are over
She broke my heart and hurt my wrist
With her snap bracelet

Red Rover (Red Rover)
Me and Jessica are over
And I don't think I'll ever fall in love again
At least not 'till I'm ten

(Verse 2)

She asked me to dance at the Halloween party I was Jake the snake and she was Tanya Harding
The next day when I asked her out
She said I can't right now I gotta watch Full House

So pretty soon things got a little messy
She found a new guy, he looked like Uncle Jesse
I should've known right from the start
While I played Nintendo, she played with my heart

When we were young we took so much for granted
Like Hootie and the Blowfish, and Pluto as a planet
She's alone at Wal-Mart, I'm stalkin' her on MySpace
She should not have broken my heart

(Chorus)

Red Rover (Red Rover)
Me and Jessica are over
She broke my heart and made me sick with mononucleosis

Red Rover (Red Rover)
Me and Jessica are over
And I don't think I'll ever fall in love again
At least not 'till I'm ten
