Sing me, sing me an old fashioned song
Bri-ing me, back in my mind
To a time where my memories all come from

A good timin' song, a song that makes you wanna 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

Fly's in the buttermilk, two by two
Fly's in the buttermilk, shoo fly shoo
Fly's in the buttermilk, skip to my loo
Skip to my loo my darlin'

Sing me, (si-ing me)
Sing me an old fashioned song (sing me an old fashioned song)
Bri-ing me (bri-ing me), back in my mind
To a time where my memories all come from

A good timin' song, a song that makes you wanna sing along
A good old fashioned, hand-clappin, knee-slappin, foot-tappin' song

When I was young I used to wait upon my master and bring his plate
Pass the bottle when his was dry, Shoo away the blue tail 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, my master's gone away

Sing me, (si-ing me)
Sing me an old fashioned song (sing me an old fashioned song)
Bri-ing me (bri-ing me), back in my mind
To a time where my memories all come from

A good timin' song, a song that makes you wanna sing alo-o-ong
A good old fashioned, hand-clappin, knee-slappin, foot-tappin' song

Sing me, (si-ing me)
Sing me an old fashioned song [fade]
