Lyrics
When (G)I was young I (C)used to (Am)wait on (G)Master (Em)and hand (D7)him his plate.
And (G)pass the bottle when (C)he got (Am)dry,
and (D7)brush away the (G)blue tail fly.
Jimmy crack corn and (D7)I don't care,
Jimmy crack corn and (G)I don't care,
Jimmy crack corn and (C)I don't care,
my (D7)master's gone (G)away.
