Kenny Rogers - Reuben James слова песни
Reuben JamesIn my song you live againAnd the phrase that I rhymeAre just a footstep out of timeFrom the time when I knew youReuben JamesReuben James, all the folks around Hadison CountyCussed your nameYou`re just a no-count, sharecropping colored manYou`d steal anything you canAnd everybody laid the blame on Reuben JamesReuben James, for you still walkOver fields of my mindFaded shirt, weathered browColored hands upon the plowLoved you then and I love you nowReuben JamesFor a graveThe gossiper of Hadison County died with chideAlthough your skin was blackYou were the one that didn`t turn your backOn the hungry white child with no nameReuben James, Reuben JamesWith your mind on the soulAnd a bottle in your right handYou said turn the other cheekFor there`s a better world awaiting for the meekIn my mind these words remain from Reuben JamesReuben James one dark cloudy dayThey brought you from the fieldAnd to your lonely cramboxCame just a preacherMe and the rainJust to sing one last refrain to Reuben James
