Luyện nghe bài hát Reuben James

Reuben James in my song, live again
And the phrases that I rhyme are the footsteps out of time
From the time when I you Reuben James

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

Reuben James, you still walk the furrowed of my mind
Faded shirt the wrinkled brow the hand upon the plow
I you then and I love you now Reuben James

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

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

James, you still walk

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

Reuben James, you walk

James, you still walk
