Lyrics

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 the gentle voices callin' Old black Joe I'm a-comin', I'm a-comin' For my head is bendin' low I hear the gentle voices callin' Old black Joe Where are the hearts, once so happy and so free To cheer when so dear that I held upon my knees? Gone to the shore where my soul has longed to go I hear the gentle voices calling old black Joe I'm a-comin', I'm a-comin' For my head is bending low I hear those gentle voices calling Old black Joe
