💖🕊️💖 Lyrics 💖🕊️💖

Reuben James, In my song you'll live again.
And the phrases that I rhyme, are just a footstep's 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 sharecroppin' colored man, who would steal anything he can.
And everybody laid the blame on Reuben James.

Reuben James, for you still walk the furrowed fields of my mind.
The faded shirt the weathered brow the calloused hands upon the plow.
I loved you then and, I love you now, Reuben James.

Flora Gray, the gossip of Madison County, died with child.
And although your skin was black, you were the one that didn't turn your back
on a hungry white child with no name, Reuben James.

Reuben James, with your mind on my soul and a Bible in your right hand.
You said turn the other cheek there's a better world A-waiting 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 weathered brow, the calloused hands upon the plow.
I loved you then and I love you now, Reuben James.

Reuben James, one dark cloudy day they brought you from the field.
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 weathered brow, the calloused hands upon the plow.
I loved you then and I love you now, Reuben James.

Reuben James, you still walk the furrowed fields of my mind.
the faded shirt, the weathered brow, the calloused hands upon the plow.
I loved you then and I love you now, Reuben James.
