Old Black Joe

(album: You Win Again - 2000)

Gone are the days
When my heart was young and gay
Gone are toils
Of the cotton fields away
Gone to the fields
Of a better land, I know
I hear those gentle voices calling me
Old Black Joe

I'm coming, I'm coming
Though my head is bending low
I hear those gentle voices calling
Old Black Joe

I'm coming home (I'm coming home)
Well, I'm coming home (I'm coming home)
Though my head (my head, my head is bending low)
I hear those gentle voices calling
Old Black Joe

Gone are the days
When my heart was young and gay
Gone are the toils of the cotton fields, away
Gone to the fields of a better land I know
I hear those gentle voices calling
Old Black Joe

I'm coming home (I'm coming home)
Oh, an' I'm coming home (I'm coming home)
Well oh well, my head (my head) is bending low
I hear those gentle voices calling
Old Black Joe

I'm coming home (I'm coming home)
Oh, an' I'm coming home (I'm coming home)
Can ya see my head (my head) is bending low
I hear those gentle voices calling
Old Black Joe
