When someone says thereain't no flies on me they mean they are always on the go always busy flies will not land on something that's continuously moving.

I am not sure about the rest of the world, but in Australia this saying is often used when someone (especially a child) is prone to speaking their mind in a humorous or ill-timed way, or saying things out loud in an "adult" manner. An example might be if you are at a BBQ and your five year old son or daughter exclaims loudly "Wow, you should have seen the size of the rat dad chased out of the BBQ before you all arrived!!" Another example might be if a young boy was to say to an adult mechanic "My dad's car has got an inline-4 engine with dual overhead camshaft and a continuously variable transmission." The saying "There are no flies on him/her" would apply to these situations.
The saying is also used for adults who are prone to expressing an honest opinion, often in a lighthearted or humorously pragmatic way, even if it may offend or embarrass the sensibilities of those who overhear them. An example may be where a TV host is interviewing a renowned author and he asks the question "Who do you regard as the person who most inspired you to write and to whom you owe your greatest debt of gratitude?" to which the author replies with a chuckle, "Jack Daniels!"
The saying "there ain't no flies on him" could be applied here to describe this person's manner. The person may also be aware of his/her own manner and say "There are no flies on me!".
