Reuben James (鲁本·詹姆斯) - Kenny Rogers & The First Edition[00:00:00]

Reuben james in my song you live again[00:00:04]

And the phrase that I rhyme are just a footstep out of time[00:00:11]

From the time when I knew you reuben james[00:00:16]

Reuben james all the folks around hadison county[00:00:21]

Cussed your name[00:00:26]

You're just a no count sharecropping colored man[00:00:29]

You'd steal anything you can[00:00:31]

And everybody laid the blame on reuben james[00:00:34]

Reuben james for you still walk over fields of my mind[00:00:39]

Faded shirt weathered brow caloused hands upon the plow[00:00:46]

Loved you then and I love you now reuben james[00:00:51]

For a grave the gossiper of hadison county died with chid[00:00:57]

Although your skin was black[00:01:05]

You were the one that didn't turn your back[00:01:07]

On the hungry white child with no name reuben james[00:01:09]

Reuben james with your mind on the soul[00:01:15]

And a bottle in your right hand[00:01:19]

You said turn the other cheek[00:01:23]

For there's a better world awaiting for the meek[00:01:25]

In my mind these words remain from reuben james[00:01:27]

Reuben james you still walk over fields of my mind[00:01:33]

Faded shirt weathered brow caloused hands upon the plow[00:01:40]

Loved you then and I love you now reuben james[00:01:45]

Reuben james one dark cloudy day[00:01:51]

They brought you from the field[00:01:55]

And to your lonely pinebox[00:01:59]

Came just a preacher me and the rain[00:02:00]

Just to sing one last refrain to reuben james[00:02:04]

Reuben james for you still walk over fields of my mind[00:02:09]

Faded shirt weathered brow caloused hands upon the plow[00:02:16]

Loved you then and I love you now reuben james[00:02:21]

Reuben james for you still walk over fields of my mind[00:02:27]

Faded shirt weathered brow caloused hands upon the plow[00:02:34]

Loved you then and I love you now[00:02:40]
