Kûbaard (Dutch: Kubaard) is a small village in Littenseradiel in the province of Friesland, the Netherlands. It had a population of around 260 in 2008. The church in Kubaard was built in 1644. The pipe organ was installed in 1858. Now electrified, it once was powered by foot power, providing air to the bellows to the individual pipes as required by the organist. Although the organ would be considered small by today's standards, it more than adequately fills the church.

CUCKOO BIRD
CHORUS:
Oh the cuckoo, she's a pretty bird; she warbles as she flies
But I never give her water till the 4th day of July
It is often that I wonder why women love men
& I look back & I wonder why men are men
(chorus)
(instrumental)
Gonna build me a castle on a mountain so high
So I can see my true love as she passes by
(chorus)
Jack o' Diamonds, Jack o' Diamonds, I know you of old
You have robbed me my whole pockets of silver & gold
(repeat chorus & fade)
