"老黑爵" 是英文歌曲 "Old Black Joe" 中的主角。這首歌是一首黑人靈歌，講述了一個被奴役的黑人在痛苦中掙扎的故事。以下是一些英文歌詞：
Old Black Joe
Oh, Old Black Joe, you're the slave to please
With a life of sorrow, you toil from day to day
Oh, Old Black Joe, you're the slave to please
With a life of sorrow, you toil from day to day
Oh, he's the driver on the old plantation
He don't drive fast, he don't drive slow
He drives his whip behind him
He pounds the ground with a steady beat
But he's not a slave today
No, he's not a slave today
He's a man, and he's free today
Oh, Old Black Joe, you're free today
Now Old Black Joe, he's a-wondering where he's going
He's wondering if he's ever gonna stop
He's wondering if he's ever gonna see his family again
He's wondering if he's gonna make it at all
But he's not a slave today
No, he's not a slave today
He's a man, and he's free today
Oh, Old Black Joe, oh you are free today
Chorus:
Oh, Old Black Joe, you're free today
Oh, it don't seem right for a nigger to be free
But you're free today
You ain't bound like you used to be
You can go where you please
You ain't a slave no more, no more, no more
