Letras de Old Reuben - Uncle Sinner

Old Reuben (original)

I told Reuben, Lord, I told Reuben
I told Reuben, Lord, you must have been drunk
Well you must have been drunk
To pawn your watch and trunk
And go and get your baby outta jail
Well if you just say so
On your railroad no more
I’ll bury my burdens and go home
I told Reuben, Lord, I told Reuben
I told Reuben that his baby was gone
She packed up her things
She left her wedding ring
He’s holdin' his head in his hand
I told Reuben, Lord, I told Reuben
I told Reuben, Lord, you must have been drunk
Well you must have been drunk
To pawn your watch and trunk
And go and get your baby outta jail

(traducción)

Le dije a Rubén, Señor, le dije a Rubén
Le dije a Reuben, Señor, debes haber estado borracho
Bueno, debes haber estado borracho
Para empeñar tu reloj y tu baúl
Y ve y saca a tu bebé de la cárcel
Bueno, si solo lo dices
En tu ferrocarril no más
Enterraré mis cargas y me iré a casa
Le dije a Rubén, Señor, le dije a Rubén
Le dije a Reuben que su bebé se había ido.
Ella empacó sus cosas
Ella dejó su anillo de bodas
Él está sosteniendo su cabeza en su mano
Le dije a Rubén, Señor, le dije a Rubén
Le dije a Reuben, Señor, debes haber estado borracho
Bueno, debes haber estado borracho
Para empeñar tu reloj y tu baúl
Y ve y saca a tu bebé de la cárcel
