(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 | |
That's's prettier than mine | |
