 And brush away the blue tail fly.

I follow with a hickory broom; 

 G7                          C 
The poney being very shy,

When bitten by the blue tail fly.

The flies so numerous they did swarm;

One chanced to bite him on the thigh.

The devil take that blue tail fly.

And tumble mater in the ditch;

He died, and the jury wondered why;

The verdict was the blue tail fly.

His epitaph there for to see: 

  G7                                    C 
"Beneath this stone I'm forced to lie, 

       D                         G 
The victim of a blue-tailed Fly."
