And the that I rhyme are just the footsteps out of time
the time when I knew you Reuben James

Reuben James, all the folks around Madison County cussed name
Just a no count share croppin' black man who'd steal anything he can
And laid the blame on Reuben James

Reuben James, you still walk the fields of my mind
Faded shirt the wrinkled brow the calloused upon the plow
I loved you and I love you now Reuben James

Flora Gray the gossip of Madison died with child
And although your skin was
You were the one who didn't your back
On a hungry white child no name Reuben James

Reuben James, with your mind on my soul and Bible in your hand
You said turn the other cheek there's a world waitin' for the meek
In my head these words remain Reuben James

James, you still walk

Reuben James one dark cloudy day they you from the fields
To your lonely box came a preacher me and the rain
To sing one refrain for Reuben James

James, you still walk

Reuben James, you still
