Shady Grove
Chorus:
Shady Grove my little love - Shady Grove I say/ Shady Grove my little love - Bound
to go away.
Lips as red as the
blooming rose - 'n eyes are the prettiest brown/ She's the darling of my heart
- the sweetest girl in town.
(Chorus)
Wish
I had a big fine horse - corn to feed him on/And Shady Grove to stay at home -
feed him when I'm gone
(Chorus)
Went
to see my Shady Grove - she was standing in the door/ With her shoes and her stockings
in her hands - and her little bare feet on the floor. (Chorus)
When
I was a little boy, I wanted a Barlow knife/Now all I want is Shady Grove to say
she'll be my wife.
(Chorus)
Peaches
in the summertime - apples in the fall/ And if I can't have the girl I want -
I'll have no girl at all. (Chorus)
A
kiss from pretty little Shady Grove is sweet as brandy wine. And there ain't no
girl in this whole world, that's prettier than mine. (Chorus)
