The Cuckoo
Come all ye
Fair maidens
Take warning from me
Don’t place your affections
On a sycamore tree
It’s heights they will wither
It’s Rot will die
If I am forsaken I know not for why
My horses they aint hungry
They won’t eat your hay
Fare thee well then darling
As I go my way
Gonna build me
A log cabin
On a mountain so high
So I can see poor Willy
As he go on by
Oh the cuckoo she a pretty bird
She warble as she fly
She never holler cuckoo
Till the 4th day of July
But if he will
He will leave me
I’ll be not forlorn
If he should forswear me
I’ll be not forsworn
Jack of diamonds
Jack of diamonds
I’ve known you from old
You’ve robbed my poor pockets
Of silver and gold
I’ve played cards
In England
I’ve played cards in Spain
I bet you 10 dollar
I beat you this game
