Lucille 歌词

In a bar in toledo across from the depot on a barstool she took off her ring Thought i'd get closer so i walked on over i sat down and asked her name When the drinks finally hit her she said i'm no quitter but i'm tired of livin' on dreams Hungry for laughter here ever after i'm after whatever the other life brings In the mirror i saw him i closely watched him i thought how he looked out of place He came to the woman and sat there beside her he had a strange look on his face His big hands were calloused he looked like a giant for a minute i thought i was dead He started shaking his big heart was breaking he turned to the woman and said You picked a fine time to leave me lucille With four hungry children and a crop in the field I've had some bad times lived through some sad times But this time your hurtin' won't heal You picked a fine time to leave me lucille After he left us i ordered more whiskey and i thought how she made him look small From the lights of the barroom to a rented hotel room we walked without talkin' at all She was a beauty when she came to me she must've thought that i'd lost my mind But i couldn't hold her the words that he told her kept coming back time after time You picked a fine time to leave me lucille... You picked a fine time to leave me lucille...
