Reuben James (鲁本·詹姆斯) - The Kingston Trio[00:00:00]
Have you heard of the ship called the good Reuben James[00:00:09]
Run by hard fighting men both of honor and of fame[00:00:14]
She flew the stars and stripes of the land of the free[00:00:19]
But tonight she's in her grave at the bottom of the sea[00:00:23]
Oh tell me what were their names[00:00:27]
Tell me what were their names[00:00:30]
Did you have a friend on the good Reuben James[00:00:32]
Oh tell me what were their names[00:00:37]
Tell me what were their names[00:00:39]
Did you have a friend on[00:00:41]
The good Reuben James[00:00:44]
One hundred men went down to their dark and watery graves[00:00:46]
When that good ship went down only forty-four were saved[00:00:50]
'Twas the last day of october they saved forty-four from the dark[00:00:55]
Icy water of that cold iceland shore[00:01:00]
Oh tell me what were their names[00:01:03]
Tell me what were their names[00:01:05]
Did you have a friend on the good Reuben James[00:01:08]
Oh tell me what were their names[00:01:12]
Tell me what were their names[00:01:15]
Did you have a friend on the good Reuben James[00:01:17]
It was there in the dark of that cold and watery night[00:01:23]
They watched for the u-boats and they waited for a fight[00:01:27]
Then a whine and a rock and a great explosion's roar[00:01:31]
They lay the Reuben Jameson that cold ocean floor[00:01:36]
Oh tell me what were their names[00:01:40]
Tell me what were their names[00:01:43]
Did you have a friend on the good Reuben James[00:01:45]
Oh tell me what were their names[00:01:49]
Tell me what were their names[00:01:52]
Did you have a friend on the good Reuben James[00:01:54]
Many years have passed since those brave men are gone[00:02:19]
Those cold icy waters they're still and they're calm[00:02:23]
Many years have passed and still I wonder[00:02:28]
Why the worst of men must fight and the best of men must die[00:02:31]
Oh tell me what were their names[00:02:36]
Tell me what were their names[00:02:39]
Did you have a friend on the good Reuben James[00:02:41]
Oh tell me what were their names[00:02:45]
Tell me what were their names[00:02:48]
Did you have a friend on the good Reuben James[00:02:50]
