Kenny Rogers - Lucille | |
In a bar in toledo across from the depot | |
On a barstool she took off her ring | |
I thought Id get closer | |
So I walked on over | |
I sat down and asked her name | |
When the drink finally hit her | |
She said Im no quitter | |
But I finally quit living on dreams | |
I'm hungry for laughter | |
And here ever after | |
I'm after whatever the other life brings | |
In the mirror I saw him | |
I closely watch him | |
I thought how he looked out of place | |
He came to the woman | |
Who sat their beside me | |
He had a strange look on his face | |
The big hands are callous | |
He looked like a mountain | |
For a minute I thought I was dead | |
But he started shaking | |
His big heart was breaking | |
He turned to the woman and said | |
You picked the fine time to leave me, lucille | |
Four hungry children and a crop in the field | |
Ive had some bad time | |
Live thru some sad times | |
But this time your hurtin wouldnt heal | |
You picked the fine time to leave me, lucille | |
After he left us, I ordered more whiskey | |
I thought how he made him look small | |
From lights of the bar room to a rented hotel room | |
We walked without talking at all | |
She was a beauty, but when she came to me | |
She must have thought I lost my mind | |
I couldnt hold her, the words that he told her | |
Kept coming back time after time. | |
You picked the fine time to leave me, lucille | |
Four hungry children and a crop in the field | |
Ive had some bad time | |
Live thru some sad times | |
But this time your hurtin wouldnt heal | |
You picked the fine time to leave me, lucille | |
Four hungry children and a crop in the field | |
Ive had some bad time | |
Live thru some sad times | |
But this time your hurtin wouldnt heal |
