Come all you fair maidens
Take warning from me
Don't place your, your affections
On a young man too free
Oh the cuckoo, she's a pretty bird
And she warbles as she flies
She will bring you no trouble
And she'll tell you no lies
ย
I'm a-walkin' and a-talkin'
And a-wanderin' go I
I'm a-walkin' for my true love
He will come by and by
Oh the cuckoo, she's a pretty bird
And she warbles as she flies
She will bring you no trouble
And she'll tell you no lies
ย
Oh the leaves they, they do wither
And the roots they do die
And your love he, he may leave you
And never say why
Oh the cuckoo, oh she's a pretty bird
And she warbles as she flies
She will bring you no trouble
And she'll tell you no lies
ย
If he should leave me
I will get up in my best finery
And I'll walk as proud past him
As he walked by me
Oh the cuckoo, oh she's a pretty bird
And she warbles as she flies
She will bring you no trouble
And she'll tell you no lies
Oh the cuckoo, she's a pretty bird
And she warbles as she flies
She will bring you no trouble
And she'll tell you no lies
