(chorus)
|
|
Shady Grove, my little love
|
Shady Grove I say
|
Shady Grove, my little love
|
I'm bound to go away
|
|
Cheeks as red a a blooming rose
|
And eyes are the prettiest brown
|
She's the darling of my heart
|
Sweetest girl in towm
|
|
(chorus)
|
(break)
|
|
I wish I had a big fine horse
|
And corn to feed him on
|
And Shady Grove to stay at home
|
And feed him while I'm gone
|
|
(chorus)
|
(break)
|
|
Went to see my Shady Grove
|
She was standing in the door
|
Her shoes and stockin's in her hand
|
And her little bare feet on the floor
|
|
(chorus)
|
(break)
|
|
When I was a little boy
|
I wanted a Barlow knife
|
And now I want little Shady Grove
|
To say she'll be my wife
|
|
(chorus)
|
(break)
|
|
A kiss form pretty little Shady Grove
|
Is sweet as brandy wine
|
And ther ain't no girl in this old world
|
Thats's prettier than mine
|
|
(chorus)
