Jimmy is a servant, he is cracking corn.
The singer is another servant, he does not care that Jimmy is cracking corn because 'quote' "My master's gone away."'enquote'.
The singer has a master. He is watching another servant (slave) working and does not care that the other servant is working.
If massah (master) found out, he would beat them both. That is why Jimmy will never rat out the singer of the song, because he will be beaten also.

So YOU can ask this STUPID question. See song below =O
refr: Jimmy crack corn an' I don't care,
Jimmy crack corn an' I don't care,
Jimmy crack corn an' I don't care,
The Master's gone away.
When I was young I used to wait
On my Master 'n bring him his plate,
And passed the bottle when he got dry
And brush away the blue tail fly.
refr.
When he would ride around the farm,
So numerous the flies they all would swarm,
One chanced to bite him on the thigh,
Oh, the devil take the blue tail fly.
refr.
When he would ride in the afternoon,
I would follow with the hickory broom,
The pony began to run and shy,
When bitten by the blue tail fly.
refr.
The pony run, he jumped, he pitched,
He threw my Master in the ditch,
And when he died the juries wondered why,
The verdict was the blue tail fly.
refr.
They burr'd him under the 'simmon tree,
His epitaph was there to see:
"Upon this stone I'm forced to lie
A victim of the blue tail fly."
refr.

The song is Jimmy Crack Corn and "I" don't care, the "I" in the song is explaining that Jimmy can do anything he wants and he doesn't care because his master is gone.

I think Jimmy was the Dad of the woman that sang that song;
"Your so vain, you probably think this song is about you"! Ha!

One way kids learn is through repetition, hence the song for young children...
