Reuben, I've been told
That you got fire in your pocket
Filling every hole
Now it's old, it's old
Reuben, I've been told
You're selling fire to the devil
You're filling up his hole
Now he grows, he grows
Every time I hear you
I go howling in the half light
Ay ay ah-ooh
But every time I do, I wish I'd hear a little howl back
Ay ay ah-ooh
Hear a little howl back
Reuben, you've been seen
You're bringing sunshine before you
Riding on the beam
Now I'm told, I'm told
And how long you keep me still
I will be quiet for our lady
Quiet for no evil
You may keep your business to yourself
Every time I hear you
I go howling in the half light
Ay ay ah-ooh
But every time I do, I wish I'd hear a little howl back
Ay ay ah-ooh
Hear a little howl back
Reuben, I've been told
That you got fire in your pocket
Filling every hole
It's old, it's old
And how long you keep me still
I will be quiet for our lady
Quiet for no evil
You may keep your business to yourself
Every time I hear you
I go howling in the half light
Ay ay ah-ooh
But every time I do, I wish I'd hear a little howl back
Ay ay ah-ooh
Every time I hear you
I go howling in the half light
Ay ay ah-ooh
But every time I do, I wish I'd hear a little howl back
Ay ay ah-ooh
Hear a little howl back
