Cuckoo In A Tree

There was a little cuckoo

Sim sa la bim, bam ba, sa la du, sa la dim

This little cuckoo sat in a tree

Along came a young hunter

Sim sa la bim, bam ba, sa la du, sa la dim

This young hunter came to the tree

He shot the poor cuckoo

Sim sa la bim, bam ba, sa la du, sa la dim

He shot the poor cuckoo dead

And when a year was over

Sim sa la bim, bam ba, sa la du, sa la dim

And when a year was over and gone

Back came the little cuckoo,

Sim sa la bim, bam ba, sa la du, sa la dim

Back came the little cuckoo again

All people were so happy

Sim sa la bim, bam ba, sa la du, sa la dim

All people were so happy and glad
