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

Gonna build me another castle 
On a mountain so high 
So then 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 forth day of July 

Jack of Diamonds, Jack of Diamonds 
I know you of old 
You have robbed my poor pockets 
Of silver and of gold 

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