We stole his bird
Coo-coo
A mighty fine bird
Coo-coo coo-coo coo-coo
We stole this bird from the coo-coo clock
And Brother Treadway put it in hoc
Stop all trains close all roads
There's a mystery up in Harlem way
So just relax and take it slow
Please dig what I have to say
Now who stole the bird from the coo-coo clock
My coo-coo bird could swing
At three o' clock he'd come on the hour
And here's the way he'd sing
Coo-coo coo-coo coo-coo
My coo-coo bird could swing
See My little bird couldn't eat no food
He only loved to swing
At six o' clock he'd come on the hour
And here's the way he'd sing
Coo-coo coo-coo
Coo-coo coo-coo
Coo-coo coo-coo
He only loved to swing
Now who stole the bird
Won't you bring him on back
That bird could solid swing
At nine o' clock he'd come on out
And here's the way he'd sing
Coo-coo coo-coo coo-coo
Coo-coo coo-coo coo-coo
Coo-coo coo-coo coo-coo
My coo-coo bird could swing
I want my coo-coo coo-coo coo-coo
Coo-coo coo-coo coo-coo
Coo-coo coo-coo coo-coo
My coo-coo bird could swing
