Lucille - Kenny Rodgers [A] artist:Kenny Rogers , writer:Roger Bowling and Hal Bynum Roger Bowling and Hal Bynum, 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, 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 a crop in the field I've had some bad times, lived through some sad times But this time your hurting 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 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 You picked a fine time to leave me Lucille With four hungry children and a crop in the field I've had some bad times, lived through some sad times But this time your hurting won't heal You picked a fine time to leave me Lucille Produced by www.ozbcoz.com - Jim's Ukulele Songbook Ukulele gCEA Tuning.

The Story of Musician Gary Chase
The Story of Musician Gary Chase www.GaryChaseAndFriends.com Phone: (615) 627-8127 Born in the lush farming hills of Ohio under the sir name of Ridenour, Gary Chase learned his work ethic early. From the industrial side of his fathers jet aircraft mechanics, to his family's farming heritage, he labored at an early age. Gary also sang, picking up the guitar in his teen years, and then moving to Nashville, TN with Roger Bowling. He was co-writer of Kenny Rogers songs, "Lucile" and "Coward of the County". Gary had moved to Florida a few years prior, where his father moved the family to work in the aerospace industry and worked on Saturn Five Moon Rockets, as well as the Shuttle program to feed his family. Gary sang in Nashville with the highlight of being paid as a demo singer for Warner Bros Music, singing the demo for Tommy Cash's top ten hit, "She Met a Stranger, I Met a Train". Gary got married at eighteen to a beautiful voice instructor and friend who later toured the country with him in the many configurations of "The Gary Chase Band". His wife Valerie also wrote for the Country Fan and trade magazines, interviewing such greats as Waylon Jennings and the aforementioned Kenny Rogers. Gary continued to hone his craft as an artist playing such notable venues as the International Hotel in Palm Springs, California and the Midland Country Club in Midland Texas for the Bush Family. Finally settling in the Florida Keys where he played for twenty seven years at such notable places as Capt.

“The Stories Behind the Songs”
“The Stories Behind The Songs” John Henderson The Stories Behind The Songs A compilation of “inside stories” behind classic country hits and the artists associated with them John Debbie & John By John Henderson (Arrangement by Debbie Henderson) A fascinating and entertaining look at the life and recording efforts of some of country music’s most talented singers and songwriters 1 Author’s Note My background in country music started before I even reached grade school. I was four years old when my uncle, Jack Henderson, the program director of 50,000 watt KCUL-AM in Fort Worth/Dallas, came to visit my family in 1959. He brought me around one hundred and fifty 45 RPM records from his station (duplicate copies that they no longer needed) and a small record player that played only 45s (not albums). I played those records day and night, completely wore them out. From that point, I wanted to be a disc jockey. But instead of going for the usual “comedic” approach most DJs took, I tried to be more informative by dropping in tidbits of a song’s background, something that always fascinated me. Originally with my “Classic Country Music Stories” site on Facebook (which is still going strong), and now with this book, I can tell the whole story, something that time restraints on radio wouldn’t allow. I began deejaying as a career at the age of sixteen in 1971, most notably at Nashville’s WENO-AM and WKDA- AM, Lakeland, Florida’s WPCV-FM (past winner of the “Radio Station of the Year” award from the Country Music Association), and Springfield, Missouri’s KTTS AM & FM and KWTO-AM, but with syndication and automation which overwhelmed radio some twenty-five years ago, my final DJ position ended in 1992.
