Oh, the cuckoo, she's a pretty bird
She sings as she flies
She never gets lonesome
Till the first day of July
I've gambled in England
And I've gambled down in Spain
I gambled with five aces
Now I've gambled my last game
Oh, it's gamblin' that's brought me prison
And it's gamblin' that's brought me pain
I'll never see the cuckoo
[ From: http://www.metrolyrics.com/the-cuckoo-lyrics-peter-paul-mary.html ]
Or hear her song again
Jack o' diamonds, jack o' diamonds
I know you of old
You robbed my poor pockets
Of silver and of gold
Oh, the cuckoo, she is a pretty bird
She sings as she flies
She never gets lonesome
Till the first day of July
