In a bar in Toledo,
Across from the depot
I thought I'd get closer
So I walked on over

And sat down
And asked her her name
She said,

I'm no q uiiier

Buf 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
He came to the woman

Who sat there
Beside me
The big hands

Were calloused

He looked like

A mountain
But he storied sha kin'

His big heart
Was breakin'
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 IeH us,

I ordered more whiskey
I fhoug ht

How she'd made him
Look small
From the lig his

Of the barroom
To a rented hotel room
We walked without

Talkin' at a
She was a beauty
But when she came to me

She musi've thought
I'd lost my mind
I could n'i hold her

'Ca use the words

That he told her
Ke pi co min' back

Time after time
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
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
