[00:12.00]In a bar in Toledo
[00:13.56]across from the depot
[00:16.11]On a barstool she took off her ring
[00:21.72]I thought I'd get closer
[00:24.90]So I walked on over
[00:27.30]I sat down and asked her her name
[00:32.13]When the drinks finally hit her
[00:34.98]She said,"I'm no quitter
[00:37.62]But I finally quit living on dreams
[00:43.35]I'm hungry for laughter
[00:45.99]And here ever after
[00:48.75]I'm after whatever the other
[00:50.88]life brings."
[00:55.47]In the mirror I saw him
[00:58.35]And I closely watched him
[01:00.87]I thought how he looked out of place
[01:07.86]He came to the woman
[01:08.94]Who sat there beside me
[01:11.73]He had a strange look on his face
[01:17.13]The big hands were calloused
[01:19.77]He looked like a mountain
[01:21.48]For a minute I thought I was dead
[01:27.87]But he started shaking
[01:30.51]His big heart was breaking
[01:32.67]He turned to the woman and said
[01:35.34]"You picked a fine time to
[01:40.08]leave me,Lucille
[01:41.13]With four hungry children
[01:46.80]and a crop in the field.
[01:52.53]I've had some bad times
[01:54.69]I've lived through some sad times
[01:56.31]But this time the hurtin' won't heal
[02:01.17]You picked a fine time to leave me,Lucille
[02:10.92]After he left us,I ordered more whiskey.
[02:15.24]I thought how she'd made him
[02:21.39]look small.
[02:21.60]From the lights of the barroom to
[02:23.40]the rented hotel room
[02:31.92]We walked without talking at all
[02:32.64]She was a beauty,but when she
[02:35.10]came to me
[02:36.69]She must have thought I'd lost
[02:39.24]my mind
[02:43.62]I couldn't hold her, for the words
[02:45.57]that he told her
[02:47.49]Kept comin' back time after time

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 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
leave me,Lucille
With four hungry children
and a crop in the field.
I've had some bad times
I've lived through some sad times
But this time the hurtin' 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 barroom to
the 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, for the words
that he told her
Kept comin' back time after time
