Oh the cuckoo, she’s a pretty bird, and she warbles when she flies
But she never hollers “cuckoo” till the fourth day of July.
I said Jack o’Diamonds, well Jack o’Diamonds, Oh I – Oh I know you of old.
Honey you robbed me of my silver and out of – of all my gold,
all the gold – all my gold.
Well Jack o’Diamonds, uh Jack o’Diamonds, Oh I – Oh I know you of old.
Honey, you robbed me of my silver and out of all my gold.
Said the cuckoo, she’s a cruel bird, and she warbles when she flies
And ever-y time that she passes, my true love says good-bye,
Well says good-bye – well says good-bye.
Woo-oo, oo woo oo oo, … ¥Ç¥
