Lucille

Kenny Rogers

Transposer:

(Rythme 3/4) 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 name When the drink 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 I closely watch 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 are callous 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 the fine time to leave me Lucille Four hungry children and a crop in the field I've had some bad time live through some sad times But this time your hurting wouldn't heal You picked a fine time to leave me Lucille After he left us I ordered more whiskey I thought how he made him look small From 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 the words that he told her Kept coming back time after time

La chanson raconte l'histoire d'une femme qui se retrouve dans un bar, où elle retire son alliance, suggérant qu'elle a décidé d'abandonner une vie pleine de rêves déchus. Elle semble attirer l'attention d'un homme qui, visiblement troublé, fait face à une situation difficile : il a des enfants affamés et des responsabilités qui pèsent sur ses épaules. Il s'adresse à elle en lui reprochant le moment qu'elle a choisi pour le quitter, alors qu'il traverse des moments de crise. Ce va-et-vient dans le bar met en évidence la tristesse et la solitude de chacun, alors que les paroles évoquent des thèmes de désespoir, de perte et de la recherche de réconfort.
