Cuckoo Songtext

Jack of diamonds

Jack of diamonds

I know you of old

You rob my poor pockets of silver and gold



Oh the cuckoo, she's a pretty bird

I wish that she was mine

She don't ever drink water

She only drinks wine


Gonna build me a log cabin

On a mountain so high

So I can see Willy

When he goes on by



Oh th cuckoo she's a pretty bird

She wobbles, when she flies

She don't ever hire a cuckoo

Till the fourth day of July
