Cuckoo Lyrics by Rising Appalachia

Leylines

2019

[Chorus]
Oh, the cuckoo
She’s a pretty bird
And she warbles as she flies
And she never
Hollers 'cuckoo'
'Til the fourth day of July
[Verse 1]
Jack of diamonds
Jack of diamonds
I know you from old
You’ve robbed my poor pockets
Of my silver and gold
[Verse 2]
Gonna build me
A log cabin
On a mountain so high
So I can
See Whitlock
As he passes by
Oh, the cuckoo
She’s a pretty bird
How I wish she was mine
She never drinks whiskey
She only drinks wine
[Chorus]
Oh, the cuckoo
She’s a pretty bird
And she warbles as she flies
She never
Hollers 'cuckoo'
'Til the fourth day of July
Mmm-hmm
Uh-huh
Mmm...
Mmm-hmm
Uh-huh
Mmm...
