Jimmy Crack Corn Traditional Transcriptions

[Verse 1]
When I was young, I used to wait
My master sighed and hand him late
And passed the bottle when he got dry
And brushed away the 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

[Verse 2]
Then, after dinner he would sleep
A vigil eye would have to keep
And when he wanted to shut his eyes
He told me watch the 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

[Verse 3]
One day he rode around thе farm
The flies so numerous, thеy did swarm
One chanced to bite him on the thigh
The devil take the blue tail fly
