Blue Tail Fly by Burl Ives


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
