Lucille Lyrics
[00:11.25] In a bar in Toledo
[00:13.33] Across from the depot
[00:16.13] On a barstool, she took off her ring
[00:21.18] I thought I'd get closer
[00:23.45] So I walked on over
[00:25.95] I sat down and asked her, her name
[00:30.97] When the drinks finally hit her
[00:33.42] She said, "I'm no quitter"
[00:35.91] But I finally quit living on dreams
[00:41.31] I'm hungry for laughter
[00:43.64] And here ever after
[00:46.16] I'm after whatever the other life brings
[00:52.52] In the mirror I saw him
[00:54.92] And I closely watched him
[00:57.63] I thought how he looked out of place
[01:02.51] He came to the woman
[01:04.88] Who sat there beside me
[01:07.52] He had a strange look on his face
[01:12.73] The big hands were calloused
[01:15.23] He looked like a mountain
[01:17.38] For a minute, I thought I was dead
[01:22.55] But he started shakin'
[01:24.99] His big heart was breakin'
[01:27.54] He turned to the woman and said
[01:32.39] "You picked a fine time to leave me, Lucille
[01:37.97] With four hungry children and a crop in the field
[01:44.18] I've had some bad times
[01:46.78] Lived through some sad times
[01:49.10] But this time your hurtin' won't heal
[01:53.73] You picked a fine time to leave me, Lucille"
[01:59.49]
[02:02.17] After he left us
[02:04.46] I ordered more whiskey
[02:06.56] I thought how she'd made him look small
[02:11.71] From the lights of the barroom
[02:14.14] To a rented hotel room
[02:16.72] We walked without talkin' at all
[02:21.27] She was a beauty
[02:24.01] But when she came to me
[02:26.45] She must have thought I'd lost my mind
[02:31.58] I couldn't hold her
[02:34.03] 'Cause the words that he told her
[02:36.80] Kept comin' back time after time
[02:41.55] "You picked a fine time to leave me, Lucille
[02:46.76] With four hungry children and a crop in the field
[02:53.41] I've had some bad times
[02:56.18] Lived through some sad times
[02:58.47] This time your hurtin' won't heal
[03:02.99] You picked a fine time to leave me, Lucille"
[03:08.01] "You picked a fine time to leave me, Lucille
[03:13.50] With four hungry children a crop in the field
[03:20.02] I've had some bad times
[03:22.59] Lived through some sad times
[03:24.86] But this time your hurtin' won't heal
[03:29.22] You picked a fine time to leave me Lucille"
[03:34.63] You picked a fine time to leave me Lucille
