Well my friend John's been dealing with depression
Cause his wife Lucielle got busted for possession
And her mounting legal fees, well they brought him to his knees
And he's longing for his darling's sweet affection
Lucielle, Lucielle, I must be going crazy
For I drink myself to sleep inside the bar
Business is going slow and I'm runnin' out of dough
So I think I'm gonna have to sell your car
Well Johnny always seemed to take a beating
And that Luciellle's love, it always seemed so fleeting
He'd try to crack a smile, but she'd break him all the while
Cause she'd run around all weekend to go cheating
Lucielle, Lucielle, you got me going crazy
Cause I'm learning all about these other guys
Coulda' handled my friend Steve, even sailors on shore leave
But my brother's name, well it came as a surprise
(Aw, say it ain't so)
Well lately John has seemed to turn a corner
And that empty laugh just sounds a little warmer
I wonder what it's all about but I won't look it in the mouth
But if anybody sees Lucielle, y'all better warn her
Lucielle, Lucielle, you've been so fucking crazy
And I've put up with your shit for far too long
Bought your Corvette back with the sale of your last sack
And I'm headed for Tukwilla, babe I'm gone
Yes I'm headed for Tukwilla, babe I'm gone
