Big old owl with eyes so bright
On many a dark and starry night
I've often heard my true love say
Sing all night and sleep all day
Jim, crack on, I don't care
Jim, crack on, I don't care
Jim, crack on, I don't care
Old master's gone away
Said the blackbird to the crow
Down to the cornfield let us go
Pulling up corn has been our trade
Ever since Adam and Eve was made
Jim, crack on, I don't care
Jim, crack on, I don't care
Jim, crack on, I don't care
Old master's gone away
Said the sheldrake to the crane
When do you think we'll have some rain?
The farm's so muddy and the brook's so dry
If it wasn't for the tadpoles we'd all die
Jim, crack on, I don't care
Jim, crack on, I don't care
Jim, crack on, I don't care
Old master's gone away
When I was a boy I used to wait
On master's table and pass the plate
And hand around the bottle when it got dry
And brush away the blue-tail fly
Jim, crack on, I don't care
Jim, crack on, I don't care
Jim, crack on, I don't care
Old master's gone away
