Lời & hợp âm

[Intro 1]
[Em]

[Verse 1]
Gonna [Em]build me a log cabin
on a mountain so high,
So I can see Willy,
as she goes walking by.
Chorus:
Oh, the cuckoo, she's a pretty bird,
Lord, she warbles as she flies;
She'll never say cuckoo
Till the fourth day of July.
Well I played cards in old England
And I've gambled [D]over in [Em]Spain,
And I'll bet you ten dollars
That I'll beat you next [D]game.[Em]
My horses they ain't hungry
And they won't eat your hay.

[Verse 2]
I'll drive [Em]home just a little further
Wondering why [Fm]you treat me this [Em]way.
Oh, the cuckoo she's a pretty bird.
Lord, she warbles as she flies.
She'll cause never more trouble
And she'll tell you no lies.
There's one thing that's
been a puzzle
Since the day that time began:
A man's love for, for his woman
And her sweet love [D]for [Em]her man.

[Outro 1]
Chorus:
[Em][Em]
