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 the name
When the drinks finally hit her
she said "I'm no quitter"
but 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 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 callused
he looked like a mountain
For a minute I thought I was dead
But he started shakin'
his big heart was breakin'
He turned to the woman and said
(chorus)
You picked a fine time
to leave me Lucille
with four hungry children
and a crop in the field
I had some bad times
lived through some sad times
but this time your hurting won't heal
You picked a fine time
to leave me Lucille
After he left us
I ordered more whiskey
I thought how she'd made him look small
From the lights of the bar room
to a rented hotel room
he walked without talkin' 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

What is the meaning behind Lucille lyrics?
When we take a closer look to the meaning, the narrative of Kenny Rogers' song 'Lucille' is such a one which shows the man who saw the woman in a bar, Lucille, who was by then already leaving her husband along with their children and crops. The husband lets the man see and feel the emotional turmoil by showing his pain and frustration over her leaving at such an inconvenient time, thus bringing to light the very topics of abandonment, responsibility, and the consequences of the choices made in the relationships. The Lucille lyrics mainly express the feelings of heartbreak, despair, angst, reflection, and solitude. The song also through its lyrics gives a strong message about going through the hard times of love and about losing and regretting. The lyrics portray suffering and emotional distress, which might not be suitable for very little kids. However, no bad language or sexual content is present so that the matter might only need guidance by parents? Is that case? ✔️
Which genre is Lucille?
Lucille falls under the genre Country. ✔️
How long is the song Lucille?
Lucille song length is 3 minutes and 41 seconds.
