waylon jennings - lucille lyrics

one two three four
in a barroom 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 fin’lly hit her she said i’m no quitter
but i finally quit livin’ on dreams
hungry for laughter and here ever after i’m after whatever the other life brings
in the mirror i saw him i closely watched him i saw the look in his eyes
he came to the woman who sat there beside me and slowly started to cry
his 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 as he turned to the woman and said
you picked a fine time to leave me lucille
with a four hungry children and a crop in the field
i’ve had some sad times lived through some bad 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 she said let’s go have a ball
from the lights of the barroom to a rented hotel room we walked without talkin’ at all
lord she was a beauty but when she came to me
she must’ve thought that i’d lost my mind
i couldn’t hold her cause the words that he told her came back to me time after time
you picked a fine time…
[ guitar ]
