Shady Grove

    (Chorus)
    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 girl in town

    (Chorus)

I wish I had a big fine horse, And corn to feed him on,
And Shady Grove to stay at home,
And fed him while I'm gone,

    (Chorus)

Went to see my Shady Grove, She was standing in the door
Her shoes and stocking's in her hand
And her little bare feet on the floor

    (Chorus)

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)

A kiss from pretty little Shady Grove
Is sweet as brandy wine,
And there ain't no girl in this old world
That's prettier than mine.

    (Chorus)
