Lyrics Jim Crack Corn - Pete Seeger

Big old owl,with eyes so bright
And many a dark amd starry night
I often heard my true love say
Sing all night and sleep all day

Jim crack corn,I don′t care
Jik crack corn,I don't care
Jim crack corn,I don′t care
Oh,master's gonna away

Said the blackbird to the crow
Down to the cornfield let us flow
Puling out corn is benn our trade
Ever since Adam and Eve was made

Jim crack corn,I don't care
Jik crack corn,I don′t care
Jim crack corn,I don′t care
Oh,master's gonna away

Said the shellduck to the crane
When do you think we′ll have some rain
The farm's so muddy and the brook′s so dry
If it wasn't for the tap holes we′d all died

Jim crack corn,I don't care
Jik crack corn,I don't care
Jim crack corn,I don′t care
Oh,master′s gonna away

When I wasa boy I used to wait
On masters table and passed the plate
And around the bottle when he got dry
And brushed away the blue tail fly

Jim crack corn,I don't care
Jik crack corn,I don′t care
Jim crack corn,I don't care
Oh,master′s gonna away

Jim crack corn,I don't care
Jik crack corn,I don′t care
Jim crack corn,I' don't care
Oh,master′s gonna away
