[00:00.82]Gone are the days
[00:04.35]When my heart was young and gay
[00:09.52]Gone are my friends
[00:13.61]For the cotton fields away
[00:18.41]Gone for the earth
[00:22.49]To a better land i know
[00:27.26]I hear their gentle voices callin me
[00:34.55]Old black joe
[00:39.93]I'm comin i'm comin
[00:44.46]For my head is bendin low
[00:49.46]I hear their gentle voices calling
[00:55.18]Old black joe
[01:02.63]Why do i weep
[01:06.59]When my heart should feel no pain
[01:11.73]Why do i sigh
[01:16.38]That my friends come not again
[01:21.82]Grieving for froms
[01:26.43]Now departed long ago
[01:31.21]I hear their gentle voices callin me
[01:38.65]Old black joe
[01:45.21]I'm comin i'm comin
[01:50.18]For my head is bendin low
[01:55.04]I hear their gentle voices calling
[02:00.64]Old black joe
[02:07.63]Where are the hearts once so happy and so free
[02:15.60]The children so dear that i held upon my knee
[02:24.99]Gone to the shore where my soul has long to go
[02:33.05]I hear their gentle voices calling
[02:39.76]Old black joe
[02:46.98]I'm comin
[02:51.01]I'm comin
[02:54.39]For my head's bendin low
[03:00.15]I hear their gentle voices calling
