Lyrics

[00:11.18] In a bar in toledo across from the depot
[00:15.63] On a barstool she took off her ring
[00:20.78] I thought Id get closer
[00:23.17] So I walked on over
[00:25.79] I sat down and asked her name
[00:30.76] When the drink finally hit her
[00:33.33] She said Im no quitter
[00:34.44] But I finally quit living on dreams
[00:41.12] I'm hungry for laughter
[00:43.61] And here ever after
[00:46.12] I'm after whatever the other life brings
[00:52.26] In the mirror I saw him
[00:55.03] I closely watch him
[00:57.67] I thought how he looked out of place
[01:02.82] He came to the woman
[01:05.11] Who sat their beside me
[01:07.31] He had a strange look on his face
[01:12.84] The big hands are callous
[01:15.04] He looked like a mountain
[01:17.49] For a minute I thought I was dead
[01:22.74] But he started shaking
[01:24.88] His big heart was breaking
[01:27.78] He turned to the woman and said
[01:32.48] You picked the fine time to leave me, lucille
[01:37.99] Four hungry children and a crop in the field
[01:44.40] Ive had some bad time
[01:46.77] Live thru some sad times
[01:49.48] But this time your hurtin wouldnt heal
[01:54.18] You picked the fine time to leave me, lucille
[02:02.46] After he left us, I ordered more whiskey
[02:07.16] I thought how he made him look small
[02:11.94] From lights of the bar room to a rented hotel room
[02:17.25] We walked without talking at all
[02:22.27] She was a beauty, but when she came to me
[02:27.11] She must have thought I lost my mind
[02:32.38] I couldnt hold her, the words that he told her
[02:37.08] Kept coming back time after time.
[02:42.16] You picked the fine time to leave me, lucille
[02:43.04]
[02:47.54] Four hungry children and a crop in the field
[02:54.12] Ive had some bad time
[02:56.51] Live thru some sad times
[02:58.89] But this time your hurtin wouldnt heal
[03:03.78] You picked the fine time to leave me, lucille
[03:08.74] Four hungry children and a crop in the field
[03:11.44] Ive had some bad time
[03:13.19] Live thru some sad times
[03:25.35] But this time your hurtin wouldnt heal
