Rikki Don't Lose That Number

Steely Dan

We hear you're leaving, that's o.k.
I thought our little wild time had just begun 
I guessed you kind of scared yourself, you turn and run 
But if you have a change of heart 

Rikki don't lose that number, you don't wanna call nobody else
Send it off in a letter to yourself 
Rikki don't lose that number, it's the only one you own 
You might use it if you feel better, when you get home 

I have a friend in town, he's heard your name 
We can go out driving on Slow Hand Row 
We could stay inside and play games I don't know 
And you could have a change of heart 

Rikki don't lose that number, you don't wanna call nobody else
Send it off in a letter to yourself 
Rikki don't lose that number, it's the only one you own 
You might use it if you feel better, when you get home 

You tell yourself your not my kind 
But you don't even know your mind 
And you could have a change of heart 

Rikki don't lose that number, you don't wanna call nobody else
Send it off in a letter to yourself 
Rikki don't lose that number, it's the only one you own 
You might use it if you feel better, when you get home 

Rikki don't lose that number - Rikki don't lose that number
Rikki don't lose that number
