Reuben James (Originally Performed by Kenny Rogers) [Karaoke Version[00:00:00]
(Karaoke Lead Vocal Version)[00:00:03]
Reuben James[00:00:04]
In my song you live again[00:00:06]
And the phrase that I rhyme[00:00:10]
Are just a footstep out of time[00:00:12]
From the time when I knew you[00:00:15]
Reuben James[00:00:17]
Reuben James all the folks around Hadison County[00:00:19]
Cussed your name[00:00:24]
You're just a no-count sharecropping colored man[00:00:26]
You'd steal anything you can[00:00:29]
And everybody laid the blame on Reuben James[00:00:32]
Reuben James for you still walk[00:00:36]
Over fields of my mind[00:00:40]
Faded shirt weathered brow[00:00:43]
Colored hands upon the plow[00:00:45]
Loved you then and I love you now[00:00:47]
Reuben James[00:00:50]
For a grave[00:00:52]
The gossiper of Hadison County died with chide[00:00:56]
Although your skin was black[00:01:00]
You were the one that didn't turn your back[00:01:02]
On the hungry white child with no name[00:01:04]
Reuben James Reuben James[00:01:06]
With your mind on the soul[00:01:12]
And a bottle in your right hand[00:01:13]
You said turn the other cheek[00:01:16]
For there's a better world awaiting for the meek[00:01:18]
In my mind these words remain from Reuben James[00:01:21]
Reuben James for you still walk[00:01:25]
Over fields of my mind[00:01:29]
Faded shirt weathered brow[00:01:32]
Colored hands upon the plow[00:01:35]
Loved you then and I love you now[00:01:37]
Reuben James[00:01:39]
Reuben James one dark cloudy day[00:01:42]
They brought you from the field[00:01:46]
And to your lonely crambox[00:01:49]
Came just a preacher[00:01:51]
Me and the rain[00:01:53]
Just to sing one last refrain to Reuben James[00:01:54]
Reuben James for you still walk[00:01:58]
Over fields of my mind[00:02:02]
Faded shirt weathered brow[00:02:05]
Colored hands upon the plow[00:02:08]
Loved you then and I love you now[00:02:10]
Reuben James[00:02:12]
Reuben James for you still walk[00:02:15]
Over fields of my mind[00:02:18]
Faded shirt weathered brow[00:02:22]
Colored hands upon the plow[00:02:24]
Loved you then and I love you now[00:02:26]
Reuben James[00:02:29]
