Shady Grove, my little love
Shady Grove, I know
Shady Grove, my little love
I'm bound for the Shady Grove
Wish I had a piece of thread
as fine as I could sew
I'd sew my true love to my side
and down the road I'd go
Shady Grove, my little love
Shady Grove, I know
Shady Grove, my little love
I'm bound for the Shady Grove
Cheeks as red as a blooming rose
eyes of the deepest brown,
you are the true love of my life,
stay till the sun goes down.
Shady Grove, my little love,
Shady Grove, I say.
Shady Grove, my little love,
don't wait for the Judgement Day.
Wish I had a banjo string
made of golden twine
every tune I'd play on it
I wish that girl were mine
Shady Grove, my little love
Shady Grove, I know
Shady Grove, my little love
I'm bound for the Shady Grove
And if I had a watch of gold
on a silver chain
I'd count the hours til the day
I'd see my love again
Shady Grove, my little love
Shady Grove, I know
Shady Grove, my little love
I'm bound for the Shady Grove
Shady Grove, my little love,
Shady Grove, I say.
Shady Grove, my little love,
don't wait for the Judgement Day.
