Sing me, sing me an old fashioned song
Bring me, back in my mind, to a time where my memories all come from
Ah good timing song, the kind that makes you want to sing along
A good old fashioned, hand clapping, knee slapping, foot tapping song
When I was young I used to wait
Upon my master and drain his pipe
And pa** the bottle when his was dry
And wash away the boot tail fly
Jimmy crack corn 'n I don't care
Jimmy crack corn 'n I don't care
Jimmy crack corn 'n I don't care
The Master's gone away
Shoo fly don't bother me
Shoo fly don't bother me
Shoo fly don't bother me
I don't want your company
Flies in the bu*termilk two by two
Flies in the bu*termilk shoo fly shoo
Flies in the bu*ter milk skip to ma loo
Skip to ma loo my darlin'
