Little Joe

Joe, Joe, Joe, Joe, Joe
Little Joe, little Joe
Though your color isn't white
You're more than mighty like a rose to me
Little Joe, little Joe
Though your eyes is black as coal
Your little soul is white as snow to me

Kinky headed baby
I'll always will love you 'til the judgement day
Even though the white folks may think nothing of you
And you'll always chase you away
Little Joe, little Joe
You're my little pride and joy
And mammy's little colored sunny boy

Kinky headed baby
I'll always will love you 'til the judgement day
Even though the white folks may think nothing of you
And you'll always chase you away
Oh, little Joe, little Joe
You're my little pride and joy
And mammy's little colored sunny boy
Oh, little Joe, little Joe
