Wow, that is a fantastic Foster song. I had not heard that one before. Thanks for providing the link.

Cracks me up think Joetato will say the song was written about him!

Lyrics to "Old Black Joe." The lyrics have a Verse 3 but the Chorale only sings verses 1 and 2 (plus chorus twice).

At YouTube, Linda Easley commented "Funny how a song written more than 160 years ago and reach through time and tug at your heart." No kidding, Linda.

Thanks for the link for the lyrics.   (Stephen Foster really wrote some good ones!)
