Paragraph Lyric
Chorus:Shady Grove, my little love,Shady grove I say.Shady Grove, my little love,I'm a-bound to go away.Cheeks as red as a blooming rose,And eyes of the prettiest brown;She's the darling of my heart,The prettiest little girl in town.I wish I had a glass of wineAnd bread and meat for two;I'd set it all on a golden plateAnd give it all to you.Chorus:I wish I had me a big fine horseAnd the corn to feed him on,Little Shady Grove to stay at homeAnd feed him while I'm gone.When I went to see my Shady GroveShe was a-standing in the door.Her shoes and stockings in her handAnd her little bare feet on the floor.Chorus:Now when I was a little boyI wanted a Barlow knife,And now I want little Shady Groveto say she'll be my wife.A kiss from little Shady GroveIs as sweet as brandywine,And there ain't no girl in this whole worldThat's prettier than mine.Chorus:
