Shady Grove Lyrics

Shady Grove, my little love
Shady Grove I say
Shady Grove, my little love,
I"m bound to go away

Cheeks are like a blooming rose,
Eyes of the deepest brown
She"s the darling of my heart
Stay till the sun goes down.

Shady Grove, my little love
Shady Grove I say
Shady Grove, my little love,
I"m bound to go away

I went to see my Shady Grove
She's standing in the door,
Shoes and stockings in her hand,
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

I wish I had a needle and thread
As fine as I could sew,
I"d sew my true love to my side
And down the street I"d go.

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 a pretty girl to stay at home
To feed him when I"m gone.

Shady Grove, my little love
Shady Grove I say
Shady Grove, my little love,
I"m bound to go away

Peaches in the summertime
Apples in the fall.
If I can"t get the girl I love,
I don"t want none at all.

Shady Grove, my little love
Shady Grove I say
Shady Grove, my little love,
I"m bound to go away

Shady Grove, my little love
Shady Grove I say
Shady Grove, my little love,
I"m bound to go away
