Lucille Lyric | Kenny Rogers |  |  | 20 GREATEST HITS |  |
| | | | |
In a bar in Toledo,across from the depot, On a barstool
she took off her ring. I thought I'd get closer So I walked on over. I
sat down and asked her her name. When the drinks finally hit her, She
said,"I'm 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, And I closely watched him. I
thought how he looked out of place. He came to the woman Who sat there
beside me. He had a strange look on his face. The big hands were
calloused, 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 a fine time to leave me,Lucille With
four hungry children and a crop in the field. I've had some bad
times, I've lived through some sad times, But this time the hurtin' won't
heal. You picked a fine time to leave me,Lucille.
After he left us,I
ordered more whiskey. I thought how she'd made him look small. From the
lights of the barroom to the rented hotel room We walked without talking at
all. She was a beauty,but when she came to me She must have thought I'd
lost my mind. I couldn't hold her, for the words that he told her Kept
comin' back time after time.
