Burl Ives - Blue Tail Fly lyrics
2. BLUETAIL FLY When I was young I used to wait On my master and hand him his plate And Pass the bottle when he got dry And brushawaythe blue-tail fly CHORUS: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 And when he’d ride in the afternoon I'd follow after with my hickory broom The pony being rather shy When bitten bythe blue-tail fly CHORUS: One day he ride around the farm Flies so numerousthey did swarm One chanced to bite him on the thigh The deviltake the blue-tail fly CHORUS: MUSIC 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 CHORUS: He lay underthe 'simmon tree His epitaph is there to see "Beneath this stone I'm forced to lie The victim ofthe blue-tail fly" CHORUS: The Masters gone away |
