SINGER: The Be Good Tanyas
SONG:The Coo Coo Bird (cuckoo)
Oh the cuckoo she's a pretty bird she warbles as she flies she never hollers coo coo till the fourth day of july Gonna build me log cabin on a mountain so high so i can see willie as he goes on by Well i've played cards in texas and i've played cards in maine oh i'll bet you five dollars i'll beat you next game Jack of diamonds jack of diamonds oh i know you of old you robbed my poor pockets of silver and gold Rye whiskey, rye whiskey oh i know you of old you robbed my poor pockets of silver and gold *sometimes i feel much younger sometimes i feel so old sometimes the warm sun shines sometimes it's dreadful cold Oh the cuckoo she's a pretty bird how i wish she was mine she never drinks water she only drinks wine (repeat first verse)
