Current song lyrics
Reuben James<br />In my song you live again<br />And the phrases that I rhyme<br />Are just a footsteps out of time<br />From the time when I knew you Reuben James<br /><br />Reuben James<br />All the folks around Madison County cussed your name<br />You're just a no-count, sharecropping colored man<br />Who would steal anything you can<br />And everybody laid the blame on Reuben James<br /><br />Reuben James<br />You still walk the furrowed fields of my mind<br />The faded shirt, the weathered brow<br />The calloused hands upon the plow<br />I loved you then and I love you now Reuben James<br /><br />Flora Gray<br />The gossiper of Madison County died with child<br />And although your skin was black<br />You were the one that didn't turn your back<br />On the hungry white child with no name Reuben James<br /><br />Reuben James<br />With your mind on my soul<br />And a bible in your right hand<br />You said turn the other cheek<br />For there's a better world awaiting for the meek<br />In my mind these words remain from Reuben James<br /><br />Reuben James<br />You still walk the furrowed fields of my mind<br />The faded shirt, the weathered brow<br />The calloused hands upon the plow<br />I loved you then and I love you now Reuben James<br /><br />Reuben James<br />One dark cloudy day they brought you from the field<br />Unto your lonely pinebox came<br />Just the preacher, me in the rain<br />Just to sing one last refrain for Reuben James<br /><br />Reuben James<br />You still walk the furrowed fields of my mind<br />The faded shirt, the weathered brow<br />The calloused hands upon the plow<br />I loved you then and I love you now Reuben James<br /><br />Reuben James<br />You still walk the furrowed fields of my mind<br />The faded shirt, the weathered brow<br />The calloused hands upon the plow<br />I loved you then and I love you now Reuben James
