Lyrics:

I am the flunky of the house; 
they call me Flunky Jim. 
You'll find me knocking' around the yard
in a hat without a brim. 
My overalls are shabby and
I have no shirt at all, 
But I'm going to get a new outfit 
with my gopher tails next fall. 

Knocking around the yard boys, 
knocking around the yard. 
It isn't any easy job,
don't fool yourself, my pard. 
My overalls are shabby 
and I have no shirt at all, 
But I'm going to get a new outfit
with my gopher tails next fall. 

At night when Pa comes from the field, 
he calls for Flunky Jim.
He pats me on my curly head
and my hat without a brim. 
He's apt to say, "Oh, Flunky Jim, 
your cloths in spots are small," 
But I'm going to get a new outfit
with my gopher tails next fall.

Knocking around the yard boys, 
knocking around the yard. 
It isn't any easy job,
don't fool yourself, my pard. 
My overalls are shabby 
and I have no shirt at all, 
But I'm going to get a new outfit
with my gopher tails next fall. 

I've counted all my gopher tails,
I've almost got enough.
To buy a hat, 
a fancy shirt, 
and pants that have a cuff!
And then I'll hand my old ones down,
They really are too small. 
Oh, I'll be swell when once I sell
my gopher tails next fall.

Knocking around the yard boys, 
knocking around the yard. 
It isn't an easy job,
don't fool yourself, my pard. 
My overalls are shabby 
and I have no shirt at all, 
But I'm going to get a new outfit
with my gopher tails next fall. 

But I'm going to get a new outfit
with my gopher tails next fall.
