Lyrics submited by: Kicko


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 drink 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 their 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
Four hungry children and a crop in the field
I've had some bad times
Lived thru' some sad times
But this time your hurtin won't heal
ya picked a fine time to leave me, lucille

After he left us, i ordered more whiskey
I thought how she made him look small
From the lights of the bar room to a 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, 'cause the words that he told her
Kept coming back time after time.

You picked the fine time to leave me, lucille
Four hungry children and a crop in the field
I've had some bad time
Lived thru' 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
Four hungry children and a crop in the field
I've had some bad time
Lived thru' some sad times
But this time your hurtin won't heal
