Im sorry. I CAN’T be the only one. When I hear this song ( as I just did) I STILL add these lines to the chorus. “You picked a fine time to leave me, Lucille.” and I addd " you bitch, you slut, you whore. You suck, you swallow, you love it." Is it just me? Is my delequent college education shining through? Or do y’all do the same thing?
I think that one’s all you, weirddave.
Well, until last weekend, I had never heard those additional lyrics.
Went to the piano bar with fellow SDMBer xploder, and the guys did that version, but without the “you suck, etc.”
Now I know I’ll never be able to hear that song again without thinking of those lyrics. So no, dave, you’re not alone. 
That’s weird Dave…I am listening to Micheal McDonald, his song “Hey Girl” about his woman leaving him.
Sorry, that was jsut too weird to see this thread at the same time as a lyric as that.
Or I could just be drunk, which is a normal thing.
I think you might just be drunk Techie… but then again… I like you that way!! grin
I thought it was “…leave me, loose wheel…”
What do you mean “mondegreen”?
So Whammo, how much would like to experience me drunk???
HAHA
I think that’s the late Sam Kineson’s rendition Dave.
actually, I’ve also heard that from a local one man band (Donn Dowland aka “dirty Don”), although in his version, it goes on, and on, and on and on… he also does the opposite sex version “you picked a fine time to leave me Louie”… great guy. (Donn) If you’ve ever got a chance to see him (usually plays around MI, but has gone as far as Vegas), do it.
Never heard the “Lucille” song as you describe it, but I was in a bar/restaurant in northeast PA when the regulars started singing along to “Sweet Caroline”:
“Sweeeeeet Car-o-line…
F***-IN’-SLUT!!!
Good times never seemed so goooood…”
Damn near choked on my sandwich.
I was in high school when Billy Idol’s version of “Mony Mony” was the Hit O’ The Day. There’s a relatively long pause in between lines in each verse, and every teen in town would fill it in the same way:
“Here she comes now singin’ Mony, Mony”
(HEY! HEY YOU! GET LAID, GET F*CKED!)
“Murmble murmble meep-somethin’ that rhymes with Mony”
(HEY! HEY YOU! GET LAID, GET F*CKED!)
…and so on. What can I say, in those days f*ck was still a bad word. I can’t remember the real lyrics, but the last time I heard the song on the radio my brain still insisted on filling in the gaps.
Flodnak,
I’ve heard that one too. FWIW, I was once at a health club where all these old ladies were doing arobics to that song, and they all shouted out “get laid get fucked” at the apropriate time. ROFLMAO!
You left out, “You pay for it.” This is how they sing it at Little Ditty’s (a piano bar). They even have bumper stickers for people who get “Lucilled.”
I heard the chorus of Mony mony as "hey motherfucker get laid get fucked, which is what Billy Idol seems to be mouthing in the video.

That sounds like something I would’ve done in high school-or now, even.
My friends and I were always making up dirty lyrics to songs.
Well, I don’t know if any of you are baseball fans, but some of you might remember Dave Stewart, pitcher for the Oakland A’s (and several other teams, including the Dodgers).
Seems one night, Mr. Stewart got arrested for soliciting a hooker.
A ** transvestite ** hooker. (I guess they hadn’t gotten very far.)
A transvestite hooker named “Lucille”.
And, upon first encountering his teammates after this incident, they serenaded him with “You picked a fine time to leave me, Lucille.”
Anyway, that’s the first thing I think of when I hear that song.
The second thing is how I originally misheard that lyric “four hundred children…” (instead of “four hungry children”).
I’ve just been on a jaunt this morning to try to find the origins of singalong parts to songs like “Sweet Caroline” and “Lucille.” I remember going to see this one man band in San Jose in 1985… guy’s name was Frank Joseph and he did both of those. He claimed to have invented the Lucille parts, but it was a little different than the one cited here. I don’t remember it exactly, but it started with “you bitch, you slut, you slime-sucking whore” and finished with “you make me sick!”
I went back a few years later and he expressed chagrin that other people had been stealing his bit.
I don’t add anything like that, because it would require me to listen to Kenny Rogers.
When I read the thread title, even before I opened it to realize it’s a zombie, I said to myself, “You bitch, you slut, you whore.” I’m not familiar with the second extra line, though.
I never misheard that line, but I always replace ‘four hungry children’ with ‘four hundred children’. I always meant to come up with more parody lyrics, but never got to it.
