Lyrics from the MIDI .kar music file

In a bar in Toleado
Across from the depot
On a bar stool 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 livin' 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 fields.

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 left us,
I ordered more whiskey
I 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 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
