(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) |
