Country music legend Kenny Rogers, whose career spanned six decades, has died at the age of 81, his family said late Friday.

A three-time Grammy winner, Rogers was known for a string of hits including:

"The Gambler"

"Lucille"

"Islands in the Stream."

Born in Texas, Rogers started his career in the late 1950s and quickly became active in rockabilly, jazz and other genres that he brought into his country style.

He went on to have 24 number one hits, was a six-time Country Music Awards winner and a member of the Country Music Hall of Fame.

His easygoing ballads and constant touring won him mainstream pop appeal, as have his popular takes on Christmas standards.

Rogers also came to prominence through his collaboration with Dolly Parton and appearances on films and television programs including "The Muppet Show."

Central Kenya joins the Roger's Family and people of Texas in mourning his demise.

Had it not been for Corona we would be headed to Texas for the funeral.

Rest Well Kenny Rogers.

Yes I too noticed the 5 marriages.

I think it goes with the career.Too much attention from women thus too many temptations.Then it gets to his head and he treats women in a trashy way.

Anyway if he was happy,who am I........

Do not leave him or her because of the hard times brought by The Virus, or will you?


Quote:
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 name

When the drinks finally hit her she said "I'm no quitter
But I finally quit livin' 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 and 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 barroom
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

"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
Lolest!
