"Jimmy Crack Corn" or "Blue Tail Fly", is a traditional folk song, it was sung by Officer Barbrady in Season Two episode, "Spookyfish".
The song was briefly sung again, this time by Towelie, in the Season Twenty-Three episode "Tegridy Farms Halloween Special".
Background[]
Officer Barbrady is imprisoned by Sharon Marsh after he comes to inquire if she had seen the people that were reported missing. Sharon believes her son, Stan Marsh, is to blame and buries the dead bodies in her backyard. To protect her son, she ties Barbrady to the wall and takes his pants.
In "Tegridy Farms Halloween Special", Towelie sings the song as he walks to the barn to get more weed for Randy's party. He suddenly stops in the field as he notices that the barn is now glowing and bizarre sounds are coming from inside.

Jimmy crack corn and I don't care
Jimmy crack corn and I don't care
My master's gone away.
