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

When I was young I used to wait
On my master and bring him his plate
Pass 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 ride around the farm
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

When he would ride in the afternoon
I’d follow him with my hickory broom
The pony behan to run and shy
When bitten by 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

The pony run, he jump, he pitch
He threw my master in the ditch
He died and the jury wondered why
The verdict was 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

They laid him under the ’simmon tree
His epitaph is there to see
”Beneath this stone I’m forced to lie
A victim of a 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
