cheeks as red as a bloomin rose eyes of the prettiest brown
shes the darlin of my heart sweetest little girl in town
wish i had a glass of wine and bread and meat for two
id set it out on a golden plate and give it all to you
shady grove my little love shady grove i say
shady grove my little love im bound to go away
when i was a little boy i wanted a barlow knife
now that im grown i want shady grove to say shell be my wife
a kiss from pretty little shady grove is sweeter than brandywine
and there aint no girl in this whole world whos prettier than mine
shady grove my little love shady grove i know
shady grove my little love im bound for the shady grove
went to visit little shady grove she was standin in the door
shoes and stockings in her hand and her little bare feet on the floor
wish i had a big strong horse and grain to feed him on
and shady grove to stay at home and feed him while im gone
shady grove my little love shady grove i say
shady grove my little love im bound to go away
peaches in the summertime and apples in the fall
if i cant have my shady grove i dont want no gal at all
wish i had a needle and thread as far as the eye could sew
id sew that pretty girl to my side and down the road wed go
shady grove my little love shady grove my darlin
shady grove my little love im goin back to harlan
