Sing me, sing me an old fashioned song
Bring me, back in my mind,
to a time where my memories all come from
Ah good timing song,
the kind that makes you want to sing along
A good old fashioned, hand clapping,
knee slapping, foot tapping 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 b***ermilk two by two
Flies in the b***ermilk shoo fly shoo
Flies in the b***ermilk skip tae ma loo
Skip tae ma loo my darlin
Sing me, sing me an old fashioned song
Bring me, back in my mind,
to a time where my memories all come from
Ah good timing song, the kind
that makes you want to sing along
A good old fashioned, hand clapping,
knee slapping, foot tapping song
When I was young I used to wait
Upon my master and drain his plate
And pass the bottle when his was dry
And wash away the blue tail fly
Jimmy crack corn 'n I don't care
Jimmy crack corn 'n I don't care
Jimmy crack corn 'n I don't caaaaaaaaare
The Master's gone away
Sing me, sing me an old fashioned song
Bring me, back in my mind,
to a time where my memories all come from
Ah good timing song,
the kind that makes you want to sing along
A good old fashioned, hand clapping,
knee slapping, foot tapping song
Bring me, back in my mind,
to a time where my memories all come from
Ah good timing song,
the kind that makes you want to sing along
A good old fashioned, hand clapping,
knee slapping, foot tapping 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 b***ermilk two by two
Flies in the b***ermilk shoo fly shoo
Flies in the b***ermilk skip tae ma loo
Skip tae ma loo my darlin
Sing me, sing me an old fashioned song
Bring me, back in my mind,
to a time where my memories all come from
Ah good timing song, the kind
that makes you want to sing along
A good old fashioned, hand clapping,
knee slapping, foot tapping song
When I was young I used to wait
Upon my master and drain his plate
And pass the bottle when his was dry
And wash away the blue tail fly
Jimmy crack corn 'n I don't care
Jimmy crack corn 'n I don't care
Jimmy crack corn 'n I don't caaaaaaaaare
The Master's gone away
Sing me, sing me an old fashioned song
Bring me, back in my mind,
to a time where my memories all come from
Ah good timing song,
the kind that makes you want to sing along
A good old fashioned, hand clapping,
knee slapping, foot tapping song
