Cuckoo

by Sam Amidon

Lyrics
Gonna build me a cabin in the mountains so high
I'll watch my cousin Willie as he passes by

Oh cuckoo, she's a pretty bird
She sings as she flies
She never sings cuckoo 'til the fourth of July

Jack of diamonds, Jack of diamonds
I know you from old
You stopped all my money on whiskey and gold

I play cards in England
I play cards in Spain
I bet you ten dollars I'll beat you this game

Oh cuckoo, she's a pretty bird
She wobbles as she flies
She never sings cuckoo 'til the fourth of July
