Jimmy Crack Corn (Blue Tail Fly) chords
American Traditional
A E
When I was young I used to wait
A
On master and hand him his plate
A7 D
Pass him the bottle when he got dry
E A
And brush away the blue-tail fly
A E
Jimmy crack corn, and I don't care
A
Jimmy crack corn, and I don't care
A7 D
Jimmy crack corn, and I don't care
E A
My master's gone away
A E
When he would ride in the afternoon
A
I'd follow him with my hickory broom
A7 D
The pony being rather shy
E A
When bitten by the blue-tail fly
A E
Jimmy crack corn, and I don't care
A
Jimmy crack corn, and I don't care
A7 D
Jimmy crack corn, and I don't care
E A
My master's gone away
A E
One day he rode around the farm
A
Flies so numerous that they did swarm
A7 D
One chanced to bite him on the thigh
E A
The devil take the blue-tail fly
A E
Jimmy crack corn, and I don't care
A
Jimmy crack corn, and I don't care
A7 D
Jimmy crack corn, and I don't care
E A
My master's gone away
Well the pony jumped, he start, he pitch
He threw my master in the ditch
He died and the jury wondered why
The verdict was the blue-tail fly
A E
Jimmy crack corn, and I don't care
A
Jimmy crack corn, and I don't care
A7 D
Jimmy crack corn, and I don't care
E A
My master's gone away
Now he lies beneath the 'simmon tree
His epitaph is there to see
"Beneath this stone I'm forced to lie
The victim of the blue-tail fly"
