Gonna build me log cabin
On a mountain so high
So I can see Willie
As he goes passing by.
Oh, the coo-coo, she's a pretty bird
She wobbles as she flies
She never says coo-coo
Till the fourth day July.
I've played cards in England
I've played cards in Spain
I'll bet you ten dollars
I beat you next game.
Jack-a-Diamonds, Jack-a-Diamonds
I've known you from old
You've robbed my poor pocket
Of my silver and my gold.
My horses ain't hungry
They won't eat your hay
I'll drive on a little further
I'll feed 'em on my way.
