Oh the cuckoo she's a pretty bird she warbles as she flies
But I never give her water till the forth day of July

It is often that I wonder why women love men
And I look back and I wonder why men are men

Oh the cuckoo she's a pretty bird

Gonna build me a castle on a mountain so high
So then I can see my true love as she passes by

Oh the cuckoo she's a pretty bird

[ banjo ]

Jack of Diamonds Jack of Diamonds I know you of old
You have robbed my poor pockets of silver and the gold

Oh the cuckoo she's a pretty bird
