76.Cuckoo Bird

Lyricist:Don Everly, Phil Everly

Oh the cuckoo, she's a pretty bird
She warbles as she flies
But I never give her water
Till the 4th 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 4th day of July

Gonna build me a castle
On a mountain so high
So I can see my true love
As she passes by

Oh the cuckoo, she's a pretty bird
She warbles as she flies
But I never give her water
Till the 4th day of July

Jack o' Diamonds, Jack o' Diamonds
I know you of old
You have robbed me my whole pockets
Of silver and gold

Oh the cuckoo, she's a pretty bird
She warbles as she flies
But I never give her water
Till the 4th day of July

Oh the cuckoo, she's a pretty bird
She warbles as she flies
But I never give her water
Till the 4th day of July
