"This song is similar to others composed by Stephen C. Foster. It has always been a favorite with men and boys. Considerable freedom is allowed in the tempo of the chorus. The use of an echo choir in the singing of the chorus can produce a lovely effect."

¶Liedtext

1. Gone are the days when my heart was young and gay; Gone are my friends from the cottonfields away; Gone from the earth to a better land I know, I hear their gentle voices calling, "Old Black Joe!" R.: I'm coming, I'm coming, For my head is bending low; I hear those gentle voices calling, "Old Black Joe!" 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!" 3. 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!"
