sing me an old -fashioned song
To a time where my memories all come from
the kind that makes you want to sing along
A good old -fashioned hand -clappin',
knee -slappin', foot -tappin' song
Shoo fly don't bother me,
shoo fly don't bother me,
shoo fly don't bother me,
I don't want your company
Flies in the buttermilk two by two,
shoo fly shoo, flies in the buttermilk,
skip to my loo, skip to my loo,
sing me an old -fashioned song
Sing me an old -fashioned song
Bring me, bring me, back in my mind
To a time where my memories all come from
is the kind that makes you
A good old -fashioned, hand -clappin',
knee -slappin', foot -tappin' song
I used to wait upon my master
And pass the bottle when he was dry
And rush away the blue -tailed 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
Sing me an old -fashioned song
Sing me an old -fashioned song
Bring me back in my mind,
to a time where my memories all come from
A good old -fashioned, hand -clappin',
knee -slappin', good -timin' song
Sing me an old fashioned song, me,
to a time where my memories all come home.
