[00:10.57]In a bar in Toledo
[00:12.96]Across from the depot
[00:15.56]On a barstool, she took off her ring
[00:20.61]I thought I'd get closer
[00:22.94]So I walked on over
[00:25.62]I sat down and asked her, her name
[00:30.57]When the drinks finally hit her
[00:33.11]She said, "I'm no quitter"
[00:35.65]But I finally quit living on dreams
[00:40.88]I'm hungry for laughter
[00:43.43]And here ever after
[00:45.89]I'm after whatever the other life brings
[00:52.05]In the mirror I saw him
[00:54.76]And I closely watched him
[00:57.31]I thought how he looked out of place
[01:02.28]He came to the woman
[01:04.97]Who sat there beside me
[01:07.49]He had a strange look on his face
[01:12.31]The big hands were calloused
[01:14.91]He looked like a mountain
[01:17.42]For a minute, I thought I was dead
[01:22.59]But he started shakin'
[01:24.76]His big heart was breakin'
[01:27.32]He turned to the woman and said
[01:31.93]"You picked a fine time to leave me, Lucille
[01:37.55]With four hungry children and a crop in the field
[01:44.10]I've had some bad times
[01:46.61]Lived through some sad times
[01:49.24]But this time your hurtin' won't heal
[01:53.70]You picked a fine time to leave me, Lucille"
[01:59.46]🎵
[02:02.04]After he left us
[02:04.02]I ordered more whiskey
[02:06.57]I thought how she'd made him look small
[02:11.51]From the lights of the barroom
[02:14.43]To a rented hotel room
[02:16.93]We walked without talkin' at all
[02:21.63]She was a beauty
[02:24.51]But when she came to me
[02:27.04]She must have thought I'd lost my mind
[02:31.88]I couldn't hold her
[02:34.30]'Cause the words that he told her
[02:36.99]Kept comin' back time after time
[02:41.48]"You picked a fine time to leave me, Lucille
[02:46.75]With four hungry children and a crop in the field
[02:53.84]I've had some bad times
[02:56.19]Lived through some sad times
[02:58.64]This time your hurtin' won't heal
[03:03.31]You picked a fine time to leave me, Lucille"
[03:08.69]"You picked a fine time to leave me, Lucille
[03:13.55]With four hungry children a crop in the field
[03:20.32]I've had some bad times
[03:22.92]Lived through some sad times
[03:25.34]But this time your hurtin' won't heal
[03:29.98]You picked a fine time to leave me Lucille"
[03:35.14]You picked a fine time to leave me Lucille
