Reuben James (鲁本·詹姆斯) - La Banda del Recuerdo[00:00:00]

Reuben James[00:00:03]

In my song you live again[00:00:06]

And the phrases[00:00:09]

That I rhyme[00:00:10]

Are just a footstep out of time[00:00:11]

From the time when I knew you Reuben James[00:00:14]

Reuben James[00:00:18]

All the folks around hadison county[00:00:20]

Cussed your name[00:00:22]

You're just a no count sharecropping colored man[00:00:25]

You'd steal anything you can[00:00:28]

And everybody laid the blame on Reuben James[00:00:30]

Reuben James[00:00:34]

For you still walk over fields of my mind[00:00:36]

Faded shirt weathered brow caloused hands upon the plow[00:00:41]

Loved you then and I love you now Reuben James[00:00:46]

For a grave[00:00:50]

The gossiper of hadison county died with chid[00:00:52]

Although your skin was black[00:00:57]

You were the one that didn't turn your back[00:00:59]

On the hungry white child with no name Reuben James[00:01:02]

Reuben James with your mind on the soul[00:01:06]

And a bottle in your right hand[00:01:10]

You said turn the other cheek[00:01:13]

For there's a better world awaiting for the meek[00:01:15]

In my mind these words remain from Reuben James[00:01:17]

Reuben James[00:01:22]

You still walk over for fields of my mind[00:01:24]

Faded shirt weathered brow[00:01:29]

Caloused hands upon the plow[00:01:31]

Loved you then and I love you now Reuben James[00:01:33]

Reuben James one dark cloudy day[00:01:38]

They brought you from the field[00:01:42]

And to your lonely pinebox[00:01:45]

Came just a preacher me and the rain[00:01:46]

Just to sing one last refrain to Reuben James[00:01:49]

Reuben James[00:01:54]

You still walk over for fields of my mind[00:01:56]

Faded shirt weathered brow[00:02:01]

Caloused hands upon the plow[00:02:03]

Loved you then and I love you now Reuben James[00:02:05]

Reuben James[00:02:10]

You still walk over for fields of my mind[00:02:12]

Faded shirt weathered brow[00:02:17]

Caloused hands upon the plow[00:02:19]

Loved you then and I love you now Reuben James[00:02:21]
