Old Black Joe |
Gone are the days when my heart was young and gay |
Gone are my friends from the cotton fields away |
Gone from the earth to a better land I know |
I hear their gentle voices calling «Old Black Joe.» |
I’m coming, I’m coming, for my head is bending low |
I hear their gentle voices calling «Old Black Joe.» |
Why do I weep when my heart should feel no pain? |
Why do I sigh that my friends come not again? |
Grieving for forms now departed long ago |
I hear their gentle voices calling «Old Black Joe.» |
I’m coming, I’m coming, for my head is bending low |
I hear their gentle voices calling «Old Black Joe.» |
Where are the hearts once so happy and so free? |
The children so dear that I held upon my knee |
Gone to the shore where my soul has longed to go |
I hear their gentle voices calling «Old Black Joe.» |
I’m coming, I’m coming, for my head is bending low |
I hear their gentle voices calling «Old Black Joe.» |
