Shady Grove lyrics

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 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 Shady Grove to stay at home And feed him while I'm gone Shady Grove, my little love Shady Grove I say Shady Grove, my little love I'm bound to go away 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
