Oh the cuckoo, she's a fine bird Don't she warble as she flies She don't never holler coo coo Till the fourth of July Oh the cuckoo, she's a fine bird Don't I wish she was mine She won't never drink water She always drink wine Don't you k** her, little cuckoo She won't do you no harm She will eat up all the ground worms that destroy that farm Oh the cuckoo, she's a wise bird
Goes down south and fall She goes down to old ??? Where the snow never falls Oh the cuckoo, she's a wise bird Built her nest in the pines She goes high up in the timbers Where the snakes never climb Oh the cuckoo, she's a fine bird Don't she warble as she flies She don't never holler coo coo Till the fourth of July
