Shady Grove, my little love |
|
Shady Grove I say |
|
Shady Grove, my little love |
|
I'm bound to go away |
|
Cheeks as red as a blooming rose |
|
And eyes are the prettiest brown |
|
She's the darling of my heart |
|
Sweetest little girl in town |
|
Shady Grove, my little love |
|
Shady Grove I say |
|
Shady Grove, my little love |
|
I'm bound to go away |
|
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 |
|
Shady Grove, my little love |
|
Shady Grove I say |
|
Shady Grove, my little love |
|
I'm bound to go away |
|
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 |
|
Shady Grove, my little love |
|
Shady Grove I say |
|
Shady Grove, my little love |
|
I'm bound to go away |
|
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 |
|
Shady Grove, my little love |
|
Shady Grove I say |
|
Shady Grove, my little love |
|
I'm bound to go away |
|
Kiss form pretty little Shady Grove |
|
Is sweet as brandy wine |
|
And there ain't no girl in this old world |
|
That's prettier than mine |
|
Shady Grove, my little love |
|
Shady Grove I say |
|
Shady Grove, my little love |
|
I'm bound to go away |
