stephen foster – old black joe lyrics
(verse 1)
gone are the days when my heart was young and g-y
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.”
(chorus)
i’m coming, i’m coming, for my head is bending low
i hear their gentle voices calling “old black joe.”
(verse 2)
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.”
(chorus)
i’m coming, i’m coming, for my head is bending low
i hear their gentle voices calling “old black joe.”
(verse 3)
where are the hearts once so happy and so free?
the children so dear that i held upon my knee
gone to the sh-r- where my soul has longed to go
i hear their gentle voices calling “old black joe.”
(chorus)
i’m coming, i’m coming, for my head is bending low
i hear their gentle voices calling “old black joe.”
