Lucille

(专辑： A Cat In The Rain - 2023)

Well, the neons were new and robin egg blue
And branding iron red, they had nothing on you
And the nights were alive in a remodeled dive
Sometimes you'd take me home with you
And it was later that spring, saw the spark from a ring
I never protested, just gathered my things
And I settled my rent and onward I went
Oh, lonesome feels better in motion

Lucille (Lucille), in the flickering light
With the moon on your shoulders of pearl-handle white
Lucille (Lucille), glad you're doing alright
But I wonder who's keeping the baby tonight

Well, I'd walked off the stage to a old dog-eared page
Finally worth more than a day labor wage
I was checking in on a rumor from home
Oh, I doubt that there's anything to it
And you're still just the same, except for your name
I lost all my half-hearted fortune and fame
Each night I would find, as if by design
Your bonfire that burned in the back of my mind

Lucille (Lucille), in the flickering light
The moon on your shoulders of pearl-handle white
Lucille (Lucille), glad you're doing alright
I wonder who's keeping the baby tonight

Get out of town, turn the radio down
The window's wide open and you've got your hands on the wheel

Lucille (Lucille), in the flickering light
The moon on your shoulders of pearl-handle white
Lucille (Lucille), glad you're doing alright
I wonder who's keeping the baby tonight
