[00:11.05]Reuben James in my song you'll live again
[00:17.36]And the phrases that I rhyme are just the footsteps out of time
[00:22.41]From the time when I knew you Reuben James
[00:26.71]Hey Reuben James all the folks around Madison Caunty cussed your name
[00:34.51]Just a no count of colored man who'd steal anything that he can
[00:39.70]And they always laid the blame on Reuben James
[00:44.13]Hey Reuben James you still walk the furrowed fields of my mind
[00:50.99]The faded shirt the wrinkled brow the calloused hand upon the plow
[00:56.54]I loved you then and I love you now Reuben James
[01:01.35]Hey Flora Gray well the gossip of Madison County died with the child
[01:08.46]And although your skin was black you were the one who didn't turn your back
[01:14.14]On a hungry white child with no name Reuben James
[01:18.56]Hey Reuben James with your mind on my soul and Bible in your right hand
[01:26.19]You said turn the other cheek there's a better world waitin' for the meek
[01:30.77]In my head those words remain from Reuben James
[01:36.01]Hey Reuben James you still walk...
[01:40.30]the furrowed fields of my mind
[01:43.54]The faded shirt the wrinkled brow the calloused hand upon the plow
[01:48.28]I loved you then and I love you now Reuben James
[01:52.33]Oh Reuben James one cold dark day they brought you from the fields
[02:00.07]And that lonely pinebox came just a preacher me and the rain
[02:05.69]To sing one last refrain for Reuben James
[02:07.68]Oh Reuben James you still walk...
[02:14.43]the furrowed fields of my mind
[02:17.69]The faded shirt the wrinkled brow the calloused hand upon the plow
[02:22.36]I loved you then and I love you now Reuben James
[02:25.91]Reuben James
