Oh the Coo Coo, she's a pretty bird
She warbles as she flies
She does not go Coo Coo, til the fourth day of July
Going to build me, a log cabin
On a mountain, so high
So I can see it comin'
Like an eagle in the sky
I played cards in Texas, I played cards in LA
I'll bet you five dollars, I'll beat you today
Jack of Diamonds, Jack of Diamonds
I know you of old
You robbed my poor pockets, of silver and gold
Rye whiskey, Rye whiskey
I know you of old
You robbed my poor pockets of silver and gold.
Oh the Coo Coo, she's a pretty bird
She warbles as she flies
She does not drink water, she only drinks wine
Sometimes I feel younger, sometimes I feel old
Sometimes it's so sunny, sometimes it's so cold
Oh the Coo Coo, she's a pretty bird
She warbles as she flies
She does not go coo coo, til the fourth day of July
