It means humor that is unsophisticated, or jokes that are so old that everybody already knows them.
Corny joke are often bad pun, particularly one that everyone has heard before.
"Why are there fences around cemeteries?"
"Because people are dying to get in!"
("Dying to" is an idiom for "wanting to.")
Joker: Knock, knock.
Victim: Who's there?
Joker: Mary.
Victim: Mary who?
Joker: Mary Christmas! [Merry Christmas]

We figured she was rich, loaded to the hilt
And we figured she had class like the Vanderbilts
'Cause we had heard for years how she was so well reared
How was we to know they meant the way she was built
Gloom, despair, and agony on me
Deep, dark depression, excessive misery
If it weren't for bad luck, I'd have no luck at all
Gloom, despair, and agony on me
