The Blue-Tail Fly (Jimmy Crack Corn)

When I was young, I used to wait
On master and hand him his plate
I'd pass the bottle, when he got dry
And brush away the blue-tail fly

Jimmie crack corn an' I don't care
Jimmie crack corn an' I don't care
Jimmie crack corn an' I don't care
My master's gone away

One day he rode around the farm
The flies so numerous, they did swarm
One chanced to bite him on the thigh
The devil take the blue-tail fly

Jimmie crack corn an' I don't care
Jimmie crack corn an' I don't care
Jimmie crack corn an' I don't care
My master's gone away

I said, Jimmie crack corn an' I don't care
Jimmie crack corn an' I don't care
Jimmie crack corn an' I don't care
My master's gone away
