Shady Grove |
Cheeks as red as a bloomin' rose |
Eyes of the prettiest brown |
She’s the darling of my heart |
Stay till the sun goes down |
Chorus: |
Shady Grove my little love |
Shady Grove my darling |
Shady Grove my little love |
I’m going back to Harlan |
First time I saw Shady Grove |
She was standing in the door |
Shoes and stockings in her hands |
And her little feet on the floor |
(Chorus) |
Every night when I go home |
My wife would try to please her |
The more I try the worse she gets |
I’ll be damned if I don’t leave her |
(Chorus) |
I wished I had a big fat horse |
And corn to feed him on and |
A pretty little girl to stay at home |
Feed him when I’m gone |
(Chorus) |
Wished I had a banjo string |
Made of golden twine |
And every time I’d play on it |
Wish that girl was mine |
(Chorus) |
Peaches in the summertime |
Apples in the fall |
If I can’t have the one I love |
I won’t have none at all |
(Chorus until fade) |
