You guys should check out Kenney Rogers in his early days. Look for Kenney Rogers and the First Edition doing " Something's Burning ". Be ready for a shocker.
No interpetation needed he said I couldn't hold her. He didn't go through because of the husbands words
@@0011peaceAAS TI William Easton Corbin COR Bim that brother he does a song called. How you say a little bit more countries. The knot's what it is who's a little bit more. Countries in the Eastern Corbin, Mayanna Eastern corbin. More bottles, a little bit a little bit more country. Then not
@@dallasarnold8615Kentucky head hotter's? I know I know but there's smooth smooth. That you are Kentucky head hunters. I got a video for the song w. A. L k softly s o f t l y walk softly by the kentucky head hunters
Let's do a little more country. Jo go little more little more MIY country, the ice cream corn and a type you're an astronaut, but love that stuff a little more. I'm a little more country than my brother hara?😊😊😊😊😅😅
He didn’t go through with it. He said I couldn’t hold her because the words that he told kept coming back time after time.
Exactly! And it says she must have thought he was crazy... insinuating that he didn't go through with it, and she couldn't believe it because any other guy would have fallen for her.
Its the evil mans fault. This woman cant even hear a song where another woman is obviously at fault. She goes so far to suggest to write another song to explain why Lucille left her marriage and 4 kids. Classic.
Yeah he did NOT go thru with it!
I don't think that he followed through with doing it with Lucille. The words the husband spoke got to him and so did the guilt of what he was about to do with Lucille.🔥😭😨😰😓
@@audreyricci6383 - Exactly he said he couldn't hold her cuz the words that he told her kept coming back time after time! 😁
Another great song by Kenny Rogers is "Ruben James". He was still with the First Edition when they recorded this.
Ruby
YES!!!!!!!
I was probably 4 or so when this was on the radio….I thought the lyrics said, ‘You picked a fine time to leave me, Lucille, with 400 children and a crop in the field’..🤣
Me too!!!!
The character with the bat named Lucille was a tribute to the great BB King, whose guitar was famously named Lucille.
Didn't know that! Thank you
He said no... that's why she thought he lost his mind
"Twenty Years Ago", "She Believes In Me", "Love Will Turn You Around", "Love the World Away"!!!❤❤❤❤
Aww "Love Will Turn You Around" now I need to go watch the movie Six Pack
One of my favorite stories by Kenny Rogers. When i was a kid, a joke went around, "what did Evil Kaneval say, when his wheel fell off as he tried to jump the Grand Canyon? "You picked a fine time to leave me Loose Wheel..." My interpretation is that Kenny never did anything with the woman because he couldn't get passed the heartbreakin words the man said to his wife.
Ha! I was just going to post about that punchline! Only problem was, I had no memory of the first part of the joke until reading your post! So thanks for filling in my memory! 🤣. And I agree - I think it’s pretty clear that he didn’t do anything with her after recalling her husband’s words.
🤣🤣I never heard the Evil Knievel joke but that's pretty good..
My mom's name was Lucille. My dad would constantly sing this to her. And she hated it.
Same for my grandmother, my grandfather did same😂😂
So was my grandma on my daddy's side who abandoned him as a baby
Your dad is a hero
This was my moms' favorite Kenny Rogers' song. I personally prefer Kenny Rogers and the 1st Editions----Ruby don't take your love to town-----theme is very similar. Ruby was Kennys' first hit.
yeah, I think Ruby will shock them too
I agree. But the First Edition version. His solo version isnt as good in my opinion.
@@kevingriffin8854 I can agree with that version - it's a little tambourine-heavy (if I recall correctly), but still very good
My dad loves this
My dad is 90, growing up he would randomly sing this song.
When I was a kid, this song was kinda funny to me, for two reasons: 1) The verses were over my head, and 2) As kids often do, I mis-heard the chorus: when he said "Four hungry children and a crop in the fields" what I thought he said was "Four HUNDRED children and a crop in the fields." 🤣🤣🤣
Me too! Haha
Thought the same thing
LOL a band I used to follow always sang it four hundred children
me too.
@@donaldstewart8342 🤣👍
I was lucky enough to have seen Kenny in concert and i thoroughly enjoyed it.
R.I.P Mr Rogers you are dearly missed
She must've thought I'd lost my mind. He didn't go through with it.
The song “ Ruby don’t take your love to town “ awesome song !!
Got most of it right. But, remember the line, after they got to the hotel room, he says "I couldn't hold her, the words that he told her kept going through my head" so, he probably did not go through with anything...he felt too guilty.
The best Kenny Rogers song, IMO, is “Sweet Music Man”. He actually wrote that one. But he has just a ton of fantastic singles. He was a legend.
This was his first hit as a country solo artist after leaving the First Edition.
I think he said she must have thought I was out of my mind. Because I couldn’t hold her. Other words his conscience bothered him so badly he couldn’t go through with it. Classic Kenny Rogers. True greatness.
This was the start of his solo career. I met the producer, Larry Butler, and he told me how he was inspired to make it happen.
In the Fall of 1992, I had the pleasure of meeting Larry Butler. He let me hold an award he had received the night before, for a Greatest Hits album he produced that had reached 20X Platinum. While I had it in my hands, he told me how it all started with the well-known vocalist, whom everyone else had turned down.
He was in Montgomery, Alabama on other business when he learned an unknown band was playing at Garrett Coliseum. He said they were pretty good but nothing special until a different singer came up, whom Larry didn't yet recognize, and started the song a capella, "You painted up your lips and rolled and curled your tinted hair..." in the original voice. He said the crowd went nuts, and that's when he knew the man deserved a second chance.
The song was Kenny Rogers big hit with The First Edition. RUBY, DON'T TAKE YOUR LOVE TO TOWN
Thanks for picking this song. It is one of my favorites to his. I don't think he went through with it as he stated he couldn't hold her after the words that were said. So I don't think he went through with it :)
We used to call this song Chupeeka. My dad had a landscaping business. Me and my brothers used to work for him. There was a Mexican that knew this song and he would call it the Chupeeka song. When he sung it he would say "Chupeeka fine Time to Leave Me Lucille" so it was a running joke for a long time.
Kenny Rogers started out in a rock band - Kenny Rogers and The First Edition. Had one big hit, a whimsical song called "What condition my condition was in" ('68), followed by a minor hit and then he went solo into country music genre. Many great songs during the 70's and 80's. I think this guy had a true conscious and could not go through with it.
Great classic country music and country artists of that time will paint that picture in your head. It is storytelling thru music at its best.
He took her to the motel but because of what her husband had said, he didn't want to go through with it. He said, "She must have thought I'd lost my mind" because there he was with a willing woman who was a beauty and he remembered how she had made her husband look small and he probably was thinking of the "four hungry children" and he "couldn't hold her" and said no thanks.
Kenny released this in 1977 and the first time I heard it I was actually sitting in a bar in Toledo across from the depot. I was killing time while waiting for a bus from Toledo to Nashville and the little bar across from the Greyhound Bus Station served food and had country music playing so that's where I ended up and it was there that someone put a dime in the juke box and played Lucille.
If you miss the part where he decides not to "hold her" because he is thinking of what her husband said to her, you miss a HUGE part of the song. Sort of like listening to the George Jones song and missing that the reason "he stopped loving her today" was because he died!
Personally, this is my favorite Kenny Rogers song.
He thought about the guys words and thought, “She’s going to break my heart too”.
Me too. It seems like most people love "The Gambler" the most, but I think "Lucille" is one of the finest country music tunes of all time.
That and that she was dumping four kids.
Anyway, I think it was as much that she was abandoning her family as it was thoughts of how she might do him.
@@melissagerber7231 A real dumpster 🔥👹😠👺 of a mother to abandon her four hungry kids and a hardworking husband.🤮😈👿🔥🔥🔥💀
There's a song called Lucille's answer. Her version of the song. You got to hear this one!
No that’s REAL country, words you can hear, a story, all the while making you feel part of the song, that’s why today’s country will never be as good.
🙄
Great song!! You should check out Charlie Pride’s “Does my ring hurt your finger”.
I always felt the guy had a moment of morality and sent her home or left himself. Try "The Greatest" by Kenny Roger's. It's a nice little tune.
One of my favorite Kenny songs is Morning Desire (late '80s)
Gotta give a HUGE shoutout to the songwriters. The original talent really comes from them.
My heart is telling me that that the guy DID NOT follow through.
Gotta love Kenny Rogers! This was released in 1977. I was about 12 years old at that time. I grew up listening to this song and just absolutely loved it!
The songs tells you he didnt go thru with it. As a joke, People were singing , You picked a fine time to leave me loose wheel. With 400 children. With Country Music you always have to listen to the words because it always tells a story. Todays so called Country doesn't compare to the older songs. I LOVE A GOOD STORY SONG! Listen to Conway Twitty sing "You've never been this far before". Can't wait to see your jaws drop to the floor with this one. Its my favorite Conway song.
There's a song Kenny did in his later years that never gets air play but it is so darn beautiful.
It's called "I can't unlove you."
He sure put out some good music.
He also helped bring The Eagles together. Don Henley actually lived with him for a time after he moved to California from Texas.
I saw Kenny live in 1987 and the audience started singing the chorus and he dropped the microphone and pretended to walk away and then picked up the mike and said he never gets to sing it because it turns into a group sing along! He said we paid to hear ourselves sing. He was a very funny guy!
This was his big comeback song and his entrance to country music. In concert he talks about half the people talk about Lucille, half the people talk about the husband, but nobody talks about the guy in the bar. Also when he sang the song in person, he would stop singing the chorus, and the crowd, would sing it.
He did. We heard it live, too. Once he sang, "This time, we're eating oatmeal!"
Then he said, "I can't believe you sang that back!"🤣
omagosh that growl in his voice, mercy! lol
he made it clear they didn't do anything... he said, he couldn't because of the words he'd told her.
On his "Love is strange" album 1990 he has a great duet with Gladys Knight "Crazy in love" edit: thank god for Wikipedia the duet was "If i knew then what i know now" from his 1989 album "Something inside so strong" which is another great song
Went to a Kenny Rogers concert years ago. On the way home my truck lost a tire. Just flew off. I said Ya picked a fine time to leave me loose wheel!
Another great classic country song about an almost encounter is "Almost Persuaded" by David Houston.
I'll second that Donald.
Well, if so many of you are going to come up with more songs, I think it's time these kids heard the name of Ben Colder. I was going to wait for a Johnny Cash song, because he did sequels to most of his, but he also did the funny 'Almost Persuaded #2'. Ben Colder did parodies to everybody's songs from the early - mid 1960's to his last hit called the 'Shaky Breaky Car' for Billy Ray Cyrus, instead of the 'Achy Breaky Heart'. He was like the Weird Al of Country music back before Weird Al was even born, maybe. Please, pick one. Any song. My favorites were 'Hello, Walls#2', 'Almost Persuaded #2', 'Ruby (Please Bring Your Love To Town)' and '15 Beers Ago'. Might be weird, sure, but I grew up on Jerry Lewis movies, too. Similar humor.
I heard this song in the 70’s and have loved ever since
My Mexican-American parents and their generation listen to a lot of country back then in the '50s and 60s. This was one of their favorites. There was a joke regarding this song that I remember. It goes something like this. "Do you know that Chupeeka song?" "Chupeeka fine time to leave me Lucille" I don't know if I told it right, I was just a child when I first heard it. Corney, I know...
Another great song that mentions a woman by Kenny is "Ruby" Don't take your love to town.
This was one of those country bar beer drinking song, on the chorus everybody would sing and some would rock back and forward, and would weep up.
She Believes In Me...is another GREAT SONG of Kenny's!!
Back in the day we thought he was saying you picked a fine time to leave me loose wheel, with 400 children and the crops in the field. LOL
"When she came to me, she must have thought I 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...."
As my truck driver uncle always sang You Picked a Fine Time to Leave Me Loose Wheel
Way back when , somebody brought out a song that parodies this one . " You picked a fine time to leave me Lucille ,,, they just brought in a gusher ( struck oil ) out here in the field " : )
You'll enjoy listening to "Ruby, Don't Take Your Love To Town". It was one of Kenny Rogers' first hits.
"Ruby" will break your heart even more than this, highly recommend.
You must review Kenny Rogers “Ruben James” and “Ruby”! The song “Ruby” was released during the Vietnam war!
Funny thing about this song. Because the chorus is so catchy, some people who don't pay attention to the verses think it's some kind of good-time drinking song.
Dont forget to check out "Ruby dont take your love to town"...I think itll be under the band name First Edition that he was a member of before going solo.
Another awesome song Kenny Rogers does is called...I am the Greatest!!
YOU DECORATED MY LIFE, is one of the most beautiful songs by Kenny but you really need to listen to the words.
Also, I think all parents will love to hear his song, THE GREATEST. Trust me, you will have a huge smile at the end of the song, even if you're not parents.
Kenny Rogers had a band called Kenny Rogers and the First Edition, he had a couple of really good songs, Ruby Don't Take Your Love to Town, What Condition My Condition was In.
I'll never forget the first time hearing this song. It was a TV special. When Kenny got to the chorus, the audience surprised him by singing it back to him.
He did a duet with Kim Carne's: don't fall in love with a stranger, he also did a song written by Lionel Richie: Lady.
Kenny Rodgers mother was named Lucille and was upset when she heard the song . He explained he didn’t write it . And I have had this song sung to me numerous times throughout my life. And of course Little Richards Lucille. Don’t get me started on Lucille Ball you got a lot of splanin to do. It’s funny in my lifetime I have only known one other person with my name.
He said she must of thought I'd lost my mind. I COULDN'T hold her cuz the words that he told her kept coming back time after time!!
For the longest time (when I was a kid...) I thought the lyrics were:
"You picked a fine time to leave me, Lucille
With four *hundred* children and a crop in the field
LOL
That's why they call him a great balladeer because of these songs!
I've loved this song since I was a young girl.
When I was a kid , I misheard the lyrics : "400 children and a crop in the field." 😂
I don't know if y'all have already done this KR song (new to these REACTION videos), but "Buy me a rose" is an amazing song. ❤️
"My Guy Had To See It Through!" Great line for women to say!.....
at a racetrack in the 80s the announcer came over the pa system after a tire came off a car and he said" you picked a fine time to leave me loose wheel".
This is the song that made him very famous.after this he never looked back.rode gold all the way 2 the end
I like this couple, they are easy to spend time with. Thanks
You might want to check out the sequel called 'From Your Ex-Mr and Little Kid Sister, We Say Thanks For Leaving, Lucille'. Not kidding one iota. A couple in Canada heard his song and wound up doing it. I don't know if it was ever recognized as such, but it is a hoot of a sequel. You would think it was written by Marty Robbins, because of how long it is. If you have the patience for it, you might get a real good laugh. It might be too rare for many to find, but I hope those who react to 'Lucille' can at least get the song a well deserved shot in the arm with a little attention, after all these years. I would love to hear it again myself and find out who it was who did the song and what happened to them! God bless you for your help on this one, and keep up the good work!
Kenny is an amazing story teller. He mesmerizes many with his songs. No one like Kenny Rogers. He's a country legend.
Absolutely love both of you and your posts. You add some class to the internet, and God knows we need it. You are a couple who anyone would love to break bread with - and that means you "nailed it" on what you're doing.
Thank you 😊
Back in 67or 68 he sang a pop song it was called ( To see what my condition my condition was in, before he became a country singer.
Both of your reactions are Priceless!!!😂😂😂💯👍👏👊😅
I love reaction videos and you guys are in the top 3. My favorites are when you are listening to a song that suddenly goes rogue, (This song, Coward Of The County) T's facial expressions!!! He is not playing! You guys are great!
Was never a Kenny Rogers fan but wow this song....
Ruby is a 1969 song referring to a disabled man home from Viet Nam. That is also a good song.
That's the thing about country music and the blues, is that it tells a story! Kenny Rogers always tells great stories in his music, like The Gambler and Coward of the County both of which had TV movies made from them.
No! Nothing happened. He said, "I couldn't hold her, the words that he told her kept coming back time after time." He lost his appetite, because he saw her UGLY showing. And hopefully, he changed his wicked ways and stopped trying to pick up women in bars!
This is such a great song. When it was getting continuous radio play, my mother in law went on a trip with her granddaughters, and those girls sang "You picked a fine time to leave me, Lucille" from Dallas to the Mexican border. She thought she'd lose her mind! (She was not a Kenny Rogers fan. lol)
"I couldn't hold her" Pretty much says it all.
When I was a kid listening to this, I thought he was singing 400 children and a crop in the field🤣😂🤣😂
Lucille (Kenny Rogers song) It was released in January 1977
Ey you couple this is why country is so good, it tells a story of happiness anbsad I love it all. The old ones
Ruby (Don't Take Your Love to Town), The Greatest, and Buy Me A Rose are some of my favorite songs by Kenny Rogers.
It is from 1977, but it was posted on RUclips recently.
When my children were small they thought Kenny sung 400 children and a crop in the field. We always laught when we hear the song again
this was kennys 1st major country hit
There's NO room for interpretation. The lyrics clearly say:
"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 'cause the words that he told her
Kept coming back time after time"
They got to the hotel room, but he couldn't get past what happened.
I had something kinda like this happen to me years back. I met a woman at our local bar no wedding ring on! We dated for 3 weeks until I found out she was married with 2 young children! I couldn't even look at her without disgust after that! Just the thought of someone leaving their family especially young children!
I first heard this song being overplayed on the radio when I was a kid, and I thought the chorus sounded sort of corny. I sang along and enjoyed it, but now I listen to the lyrics and OMG. It's about the saddest thing I've ever heard. The kids are hungry, the husband just lost the person he needed most, and Lucille is trying to pretend she's not the quitter she is. Now that's a country song!
I’ve been listening to this song since I was a young girl, my dad LOVES country and this was about the level of country mum would listen to 😂😂😂 so this was every car trip xxxx
Poignant and graphic. The best country songs are. Thanks guys.
He rejected her. It even says in the lyrics that he couldn't hold her and that she must've thought he lost his mind. The only logical conclusion is that he couldn't go through with it.
F.Y.I. Lucille is also the name of Blues guitarist,and singer B.B. King's electric guitar 🎸✌️❤️
As all Military will do, we rewrote the words to the chorus, while stationed in Korea. I'd post them, but U toob would shut you down. got to admit, it was funny. It was sung by a Korean Country/Western Band called the Grand Old Opry. If you didn't get to the Club by 4:00 pm, you couldn't get a seat for the 7:00 pm show start. They didn't just sing Country, they put on a show. Love your Channel.
When I first heard this as a kid, I thought he said: '400 children', & a crop in the field..."
Now that’s a country song. I wish the husband had said that he loved Lucille and wanted her to come home. In a way all he said was you need to keep helping me with all the hard work. She was tired of being poor while still working all the time and living on dreams.
That doesn’t condone her behavior but makes it a little more understandable.
I have a story about singing this song (incorrectly) when I was very young probably 8 or 9 years old (much older now)! My parents were divorced and one weekend I was riding with my dad and younger sisters to go visit a family member! Dad was listening to this song and I kept singing the wrong lyrics to the course! I was saying “400 hundred children instead of “4 hungry children” which obviously didn’t make any sense! The funny thing is there are websites dedicated to misheard lyrics where adults hear them wrong! At least I have the excuse of being very young! And it was on a cassette tape! 😂.
I really like watching yall's reaction to these old country songs. One of the old ones I would love to see your reaction to is put out by a man named Vern Gosdin, and the name of the song is Chisiled in stone. Vern was not as popular as some of the other greats. But he sure could jerk a tear.
