Cuckoo by Kristin Hersh

Cuckoo Lyrics

edit | print 
Oh the cuckoo shes a pretty bird
She wobbles when she flies
She don't ever holler cuckoo
Till the fourth day of July
Jack of Diamonds
Jack of Diamonds
I know you of old
You rob my poor pockets of silver and gold

Oh the cuckoo shes a pretty bird
I wish that she was mine
She don't ever drink water
She only drinks wine

Gonna build me a log cabin
On a mountain so high
So I can see Billy
When he goes on by

Oh the cuckoo shes a pretty bird
She wobbles when she flies
She don't ever hire a cuckoo
Till the fourth day of July
