Thank you, my friend CW5 Jack Cardwell for posting the official music video of Rising Appalachia performing Cuckoo
"Filmed in a cryptic cavern in Appalachia, Cuckoo is a traditional folk song that Leah and Chloe learned from their mother and her band The Rosin Sisters. This full band version highlights the connection between the many styles of music (blues, west african, irish) that blended together in Appalachia while bringing it to a more modern and rhythmic arena. Capturing the magic and mischief of some of the inspirational figures in Rising Appalachia's life, Cuckoo is an old song with new resonance.
This song is dedicated to Whitlock Connah, Leah and Chloe's godfather, who was a fine harmonica player and folk sculptor as well as a deep soul man down in Georgia. He was one of the first people to encourage the sisters to sing and pursue music, and for that, they are forever inspired and uplifted by his spirit."
The Cuckoo Traditional
Lyrics
"gonna build me a log cabin
on a mountain so high
so i can see my darling
as she goes passing by
oh the cuckoo, she's a pretty bird
and she warbles as she flies
but she never says cuckoo
'til the fourth day of july
now my horses, they ain't hungry
and they won't eat your hay
so i'll ride on just a little further
and i'll feed them on the way
oh the cuckoo, she's a pretty bird
and she warbles as she flies
she will cause you never no trouble
and she'll tell you no lies
you can see that i have wandered
by the dust that's on my feet
but now i'll build me a log cabin
and let my true love look for me
oh the cuckoo, she's a pretty bird
and she warbles as she flies
but she never says cuckoo
'til the fourth day of july "
