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 She warbles as she flies But I never give her water Till the forth day of July Gonna build me another castle On a mountain so high So then I can see my true love
As she pa**es by 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 --- Instrumental --- Jack of Diamonds, Jack of Diamonds I know you of old You have robbed my poor pockets Of silver and of gold 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...
