Lucille, you won't do your sister's will
                                           
You ran off and married, but I love you still

Lucille, please come back where you belong

I've been good to you, baby; please don't leave me alone

I woke up this mornin', Lucille was not in sight
  
I asked her friends about her but all their lips were tight

Verse 3:
Lucille, baby, satisfy my heart
Lucille, baby, satisfy my heart
The place I went to, baby
It gave us such a wonderful start
