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
Flies in the buttermilk, shoo fly, shoo
Flies in the buttermilk, skip to my loo
Skip to my loo, my darling
Sing me an old -fashioned song
Sing me old -fashioned song
to a time where my memories all come from
the kind that makes you want
When I was young, used to wait
Upon my master and bring his plate
Past a bottle when he was dry
And flash 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
to a time where my memories all come from
the kind that makes you wanna sing along
A good old -fashioned, hand -clappin',
knee -slappin', foot -tappin' song
sing me an old -fashioned song
Bring me, bring me, back in my mind
To a time where my memories all come from
A good old -fashioned, hand -flappin',
knee -slappin', foot -tappin' song.
