Lyrics Lucille - Cœur De Pirate

(Reprise d'une chanson de Kenny Rodgers)

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 crops in the field
And I've had some bad times
And 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 bar room
To the rented hotel room
We walked without talking at all

But she was a beauty
When she came to me
She must have thought I'd lost my mind
I couldn't hold her
The words that he told her
Kept comin' back time after time

You picked a fine time to leave me Lucille
With four hungry children and crops in the field
And I've had some bad times
Lived through some sad times
But this time the hurtin' won't heal
You picked a fine time to leave me Lucille

Oh you picked a fine time to leave me Lucille
