Lyrics

Come all ye fair maidens
Take warning from me
Don't place your affection on a sycamore tree
His heart they will wither
Its roots will die
If I'm forsaken
I know not for why
My horses ain't hungry
They won't eat your hay
Fare me well darling
As i go my way
Gonna build me a log cabin
On a mountain so high
So I can see my Willie
Where he goes on by
Oh the cuckoo she's pretty bird
She warbles as she flies
She never holler cuckoo
Till the fourth day of july
Oh if you will he will leave me
I'll be not for low
He will sure forsake me, i'll be not forsworn
Jack of diamonds
Jack of diamonds
I'm known you from old
You robbed my poor pockets of silver and gold
I've played cards in England
I've played cards in Spain
I'll bet you ten dollars
I'll beat you this game
