Reuben James (鲁本·詹姆斯) - The First Edition/Kenny Rogers (肯尼·罗杰斯)[00:00:00]

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

And the phrase that I rhyme are[00:00:11]

Just a footstep out of time[00:00:13]

From the time when I knew you reuben james[00:00:15]

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

Cussed your name[00:00:26]

You're just a no-count[00:00:28]

Sharecropping colored man[00:00:29]

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

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

Reuben james[00:00:38]

You still walk the furrowed fields of my mind[00:00:41]

Faded shirt the weathered brow[00:00:46]

The calloused hands upon the plow[00:00:49]

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

Flora Grey the gossip of Madison County died with child[00:00:57]

And 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[00:01:10]

Reuben James with your mind on my soul[00:01:15]

And a Bible in your right hand you said[00:01:19]

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[00:01:28]

Reuben james[00:01:33]

You still walk the furrowed fields of my mind[00:01:35]

The faded shirt the weathered brow[00:01:40]

The calloused hands upon the plow[00:01:43]

I loved you then and I love you now reuben james[00:01:46]

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

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

Until your lonely pine box came[00:01:59]

Just a preacher and me in the rain[00:02:01]

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

Reuben james[00:02:09]

You still walk the furrowed fields of my mind[00:02:12]

The faded shirt the weathered brow[00:02:17]

The calloused hands upon the plow[00:02:19]

I loved you then and I love you now reuben james[00:02:22]

Reuben james[00:02:27]

You still walk the furrowed fields of my mind[00:02:30]

The faded shirt the weathered brow[00:02:35]

The calloused hands upon the plow[00:02:37]

I loved you then and I love you now reuben james[00:02:40]
