Kenny Rogers - Lucille Lyrics
In a bar in toledo across from the depotOn a barstool she took off her ringI thought Id get closerSo I walked on overI sat down and asked her nameWhen the drink finally hit herShe said Im no quitterBut I finally quit living on dreamsIm hungry for laughterAnd here ever afterIm after whatever the other life bringsIn the mirror I saw himI closely watch himI thought how he looked out of placeHe came to the womanWho sat their beside meHe had a strange look on his faceThe big hands are callousHe looked like a mountainFor a minute I thought I was deadBut he started shakingHis big heart was breakingHe turned to the woman and saidYou picked the fine time to leave me, lucilleFour hungry children and a crop in the fieldIve had some bad timeLive thru some sad timesBut this time your hurtin wouldnt healAfter he left us, I ordered more whiskeyI thought how he made him look smallFrom lights of the bar room to a rented hotel roomWe walked without talking at allShe was a beauty, but when she came to meShe must have thought I lost my mindI couldnt hold her, the words that he told herKept coming back time after time.You picked the fine time to leave me, lucilleFour hungry children and a crop in the fieldIve had some bad timeLive thru some sad timesBut this time your hurtin wouldnt healYou picked the fine time to leave me, lucilleFour hungry children and a crop in the fieldIve had some bad timeLive thru some sad timesBut this time your hurtin wouldnt heal
