When I was young I used to wait
On master and hand him his plate
I passed him the bottle when he got dry
And brush away the blue-tail fly
Jimmy crack corn, and I don't care
Jimmy crack corn, and I don't care
Jimmy crack corn, and I don't care
My master's gone away
One day he rode around the farm
The flies so numerous that they did swarm
One chanced to bite him on the thigh
The devil take the blue-tail fly
Jimmy crack corn, and I don't care
Jimmy crack corn, and I don't care
Jimmy crack corn, and I don't care
My master's gone away
I said Jimmy crack corn, and I don't care
Jimmy crack corn, and I don't care
Jimmy crack corn, and I don't care
My master's gone away
