[00:00.09] Reuben James - Scott Walker
[00:05.00] Reuben James, in my song you live again
[00:12.47] And the phrases that I rhyme
[00:15.31] Are just footsteps out of time
[00:18.31] From the time when I first knew you Reuben James
[00:23.25] Reuben James all the folks around Madison County
[00:27.50] Cursed your name
[00:30.08] Just a no-account share-croppin colored man
[00:33.70] Who would steal anything he can
[00:36.45] And they always laid the blame on Reuben James
[00:41.40] Reuben James, you still walk the furrowed fields of my mind
[00:49.97] The faded shirt, the weathered brow
[00:52.70] The calloused hand upon the plough
[00:55.53] I loved you then and I love you now Reuben James
[01:01.15] Flora Gray, the gossip of Madison County died with a child
[01:08.00] And although your skin was black
[01:10.77] It was you that didnt turn your back
[01:14.39] On a hungry white child with no name, Reuben James
[01:19.45] Reuben James, with your mind on my soul
[01:22.90] And the Bible in your right hand
[01:26.91] You said turn the other cheek
[01:29.76] A better world is a-waiting for the meek
[01:32.66] In my head those words remain from Reuben James
[01:37.91] Reuben James, you still walk the furrowed fields of my mind
[01:46.48] The faded shirt, the weathered brow
[01:49.20] The calloused hand upon the plough
[01:51.96] I loved you then and I love you now Reuben James
[01:57.84] Reuben James one dark cloudy day
[02:01.00] They brought you from the fields
[02:04.48] And to your lonely pine box came
[02:07.67] Just a preacher, me and the rain
[02:10.99] To sing one last refrain for Reuben James
[02:15.86] Reuben James, you still walk the furrowed fields of my mind
[02:24.61] The faded shirt, the weathered brow
[02:27.36] The calloused hand upon the plough
[02:30.18] I loved you then and I love you now Reuben James
