Songtexte The Blue Tailed Fly - Pete Seeger
When
I
was
young
I
used
to
wait
On
my
master
and
give
him
his
plate
And
pass
the
bottle
when
he
got
dry
And
brush
away
the
blue-tail
fly
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
with
a
hickory
broom
The
pony
being
rather
shy
When
bitten
by
a
blue-tail
fly
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
One
day
he
rode
around
the
farm
The
flies
so
numerous
they
did
swarm
One
chanced
to
bite
him
on
the
thigh
The
devil
take
the
blue-tail
fly
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
The
pony
jump,
he
tassy
pitch
He
threw
my
master
in
the
ditch
He
died
and
the
jury
wondered
why
The
verdict
was
the
blue-tail
fly
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
He
lies
beneath
the
'simmon
tree
His
epitaph
is
there
to
see
"Beneath
this
stone
I'm
forced
to
lie
The
victim
of
a
blue-tail
fly"
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
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
