Lead Belly
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 mastas gone away. Rod-a, he ride him and he jumped a ditch,He ride-a, he rode him, and the pony did pitch. The pony, he felt a little bit shy,‘Cause he’s bitten by that blue-tailed fly. (Chorus)When I went down in Louisiana,I stayed a little while in Texarkana. Every once in a while, I felt a little bit shy‘Cause I was bitten by that blue-tailed fly. (Chorus)I was on my to Shreveport, Louisiana,Then I stopped out in Caspiana.And I felt a little bit shy,‘Cause I was bitten by that blue-tailed fly. (Chorus)When I was drivin’ along in my carI was stoppin’ most anywhere.Once in while I look up in the sky‘Cause I was bitten by that blue-tailed fly. (Chorus)Once in a while I do a little bit o’dance,And some of the people come around and says, "Will you allow me a little chance?But every once in a while I feel a little bit shy‘Cause I was bitten by that blue-tailed fly. (Chorus) (2x)
