Chorus: Shady Grove my little love - Shady Grove I say/ Shady Grove my little love - Bound to go away.
Lips as red as the blooming rose - 'n eyes are the prettiest brown/ She's the darling of my heart - the sweetest girl in town. (Chorus)
Wish I had a big fine horse - corn to feed him on/And Shady Grove to stay at home - feed him when I'm gone (Chorus)
Went to see my Shady Grove - she was standing in the door/ With her shoes and her stockings in her hands - and her little bare feet on the floor. (Chorus)
When I was a little boy, I wanted a Barlow knife/Now all I want is Shady Grove to say she'll be my wife. (Chorus)
Peaches in the summertime - apples in the fall/ And if I can't have the girl I want - I'll have no girl at all. (Chorus)
A kiss from pretty little Shady Grove is sweet as brandy wine. And there ain't no girl in this whole world, that's prettier than mine. (Chorus)
