Parody, Kenny Rogers, Lucille

[royburnham]

Does anyone have the lyrics for this? Just heard about it and want to add to my song list!! I believe the chorus starts "YOU'VE PICKED A FINE TIME TO HEAVE UP LUCILLE". I've done various seaches but to no avail!
Great music (well music anyway!!) up the Guadiana, but this probably won't add to it!!!!

The name of this masterpiece is 'Loose Reel', which might help your search.

The lucille parody was written by Pat Cooksey according to someone on Mudcat.

Loose Real looks like a different parody?? "you picked a fine time to leave me loose reel" rather than the OP's words.

I heard this parody sung by Tony Snell in the BVI during the 1970's. Tony had a bar/resturant (The Last Resort) near the airport by Tortola. It was a popular place for charter guests to anchor for the night and have dinner. The lyrics referred to a charter cook "Lucille". He had other songs as well. One was the "Rum Stoned Captain" a parody of the "Rhinestone Cowboy".
