Shady Grove

Cheeks as red as a bloomin rose
 Eyes the darkest brown
 She's the darlin of my heart
 Sweetest little thing in town
 Shady Grove my little love
 Shady Grove I say
 Shady Grove my little love
 I'm bound to go away
 Well I went to see my little Shady Grove
 She was standin in the door
 Her shoes and socks were in her hand
 Her 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
 ♪
 Now when I was a little bitty boy
 I wanted me a Barlow knife
 Now I want a little Shady Grove
 I want her to be my wife
 Said Shady Grove my little love
 Shady Grove I say
 Shady Grove my little love
 I'm a goin away
 There's peaches in the summertime
 There's apples in the fall
 If I can't have the one I love
 I won't have none at all
 ♪
 Well have you seen the mournful dove
 Flyin from pine to pine
 She's mournin for her own true love
 Like I mourn for mine
 Singing Shady Grove my little love
 Shady Grove I say
 Shady Grove my little love
 I'm a go'd away
 Said Shady Grove my little love
 Shady Grove I say
 Shady Grove my little love
 I'm a go'd away
