| Reuben James in my song you'll live again | |
| And the phrases that I rhyme | |
| Are just footsteps out of time | |
| From the time when I knew you, Reuben James | |
| Reuben James all the folks around Madison County cussed your name | |
| Just a no count share croppin' colored man | |
| Who'd steal anything that he can | |
| And they always laid the blame on, Reuben James | |
| Reuben James, you still walk the furrowed fields of my mind | |
| The faded shirt, the wrinkled brow | |
| The calloused hand upon the plow | |
| I loved you then and I love you now, Reuben James | |
| Flora Gray, the gossip of Madison County died with the child | |
| And although your skin was black | |
| You were the one who didn't turn your back | |
| On a hungry white child with no name, Reuben James | |
| Reuben James with your mind on my soul and Bible in your right hand | |
| You said turn the other cheek | |
| There's a better land waitin' for the meek | |
| In my mind these words remain from Reuben James | |
| Reuben James, you still walk the furrowed fields of my mind | |
| The faded shirt, the wrinkled brow | |
| The calloused hand upon the plow | |
| I loved you then and I love you now, Reuben James | |
| Reuben James, one cold dark day, they brought you from the fields | |
| And to your lonely pine box came | |
| Just a preacher, me and the rain | |
| To sing one last refrain for Reuben James | |
| Reuben James, you still walk the furrowed fields of my mind | |
| The faded shirt, the wrinkled brow | |
| The calloused hand upon the plow | |
| I loved you then and I love you now, Reuben James |
