The Cuckoo (Alternate Version)

You know the cuckoo

Shes a pretty bird

Baby but she warble woman as she fly

but she never, never heard a cuckoo

until the Fourth Day of July

Mama, mama

Ooh, sweet mama

Tell you boy not to be a gamblin' man

Cuz the card'll cheat em'

lord they will beat him

and they'll leave him with a losin' hand

Jack o' Diamonds

yeah, Jack o' Diamonds

well, ya robbed my poor pocket o' silver and gold

first ya hurt me

then ya desert me

then ya leave me out in the cold

I'm gonna buy me

Baby, I'm gonna buy me

a little cabin on the mountain top

you know I'm gonna stay there

Baby I'm just gonna lay there

I don't care if the whole world come to a stop

You know the cuckoo is a pretty bird

baby but she warble as she fly

but baby you never heard a cuckoo

until the fourth of july
