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 her name, when the drinks
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 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 lead me Lucy,
with four hundred 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 lead me Lucy, 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, 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, but the words that he told her, kept coming back time after time,
you picked a fine time to lead me Lucy, with four hundred 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 lead me Lucy,
you picked a fine time to lead me Lucy, with four hundred 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 lead me Lucy, you picked a fine time to lead me Lucy.
