The Cuckoo Bird |
| Well, the cuckoo she’s a pretty bird |
| She warbles as she flies |
| She never hollers cuckoo |
| Till the fourth day, July |
| I’ve played cards in England |
| I’ve gambled in Spain |
| I’ll bet you ten dollars |
| I’ll beat you next game |
| Jack of Diamonds, Jack of Diamonds |
| I knew you from old |
| You robbed my poor pockets |
| Of silver and gold |
| Gonna build me log cabin |
| On a mountain so high |
| So I can see Nelly |
| As she goes riding by |
| Well, the cuckoo she’s a pretty bird |
| She warbles as she flies |
| She never hollers cuckoo |
| Till th fourth day, July |
