The Singing Scoutmaster: Lucille

GIn a bar in Toledo across from the depot

On a barstool she took off her D7ring

I Amthought I'd get closer so D7I walked on over

I Amsat down and D7asked her her Gname

GWhen the drinks finally hit her she said I'm no quitter

But I finally quit G7living on Cdreams

I'm D7hungry for laughter and here ever after

I'm after whatever the other life Gbrings

GIn the mirror I saw him, I closely watched him

I thought how he looked out of D7place

He came Amto the woman who sat D7there beside me

He Amhad a strange D7look on his Gface

GThe big hands were calloused, he looked like a mountain

For a minute I G7thought I was Cdead

But D7he started shaking his big heart was breaking

He turned to the woman and Gsaid

GYou picked a fine time to leave me LuCcille

With four hungry children and a crop in the Gfield

CI've had some bad times, lived through some sad times

But this time your hurting wouldn't Gheal

You picked a D7fine time to leave me LuGcille

GAfter he left us I ordered more whiskey

I thought how she'd made him look D7small

From the Amlights of the bar room to a D7rented hotel room

We walked without talking at Gall

GShe was a beauty but when she came to me

She must have thought G7I'd lost my Cmind

D7I couldn't hold her, the words that he told her

Kept coming back time after Gtime

GYou picked a fine time to leave me LuCcille

With four hungry children and a crop in the Gfield

CI've had some bad times, lived through some sad times

But this time your hurting wouldn't Gheal

You picked a D7fine time to leave me LuGcille
