Luyện nghe bài hát Reuben James

Reuben James in my song you'll live
And the phrases I rhyme are just the footsteps out of time
For the time when I you Reuben James
Reuben James all the around Madison Caunty cussed your name
Just a no count sharecroppin' colored man steal anything he can
And they always put the on Reuben James
Reuben James you walk the furrowed fields of my mind
The faded shirt the wrinkled brow the hand upon the plow
I loved you then and I you now Reuben James

Flora Gray the gossip of Madison County died child
And although your skin was black you the one who didn't turn your back
On a hungry white child with no Reuben James
Reuben James your mind on my soul and Bible in your right hand
You said turn the other cheek there's a better world for the meek
In my head these words remain from Reuben
James you still walk...

Reuben James one cloudy day they brought you from the fields
And lonely pinebox came just a preacher me and the rain
To sing one last refrain for James
Reuben you still walk...
