In a bar in Toledo
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 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 what-ever
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 field
I've 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 whisky
I thought how
she'd 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
'cos the words that told her
kept coming back time after time

Chorus
