8. SHADY GROVE (4:01)
SHADY GROVE
- Arr. by The EH
(Chorus)
Shady Grove, my little love
Shady Grove, my darling
Shady Grove, my little love
I’m going down to Harlan
Wish I had a great big horse
Corn to feed him on
Pretty little girl to stay at home
And feed him when I’m gone
Shady Grove, my little love
Shady Grove, my darling
Shady Grove, my little love
I’m going down to Harlan.
Solo
15 miles of country road
18 miles of sand
If I’m coming back this way
I’ll be a married man
Shady Grove, my little love
Shady Grove, my darling
Shady Grove, my little love
I’m going down to Harlan
Peaches in the summertime
Apples in the fall
If I don’t get the girl I want
I don’t want one at all
Shady Grove, my little love
Shady Grove, my darling
Shady Grove, my little love
I’m going down to Harlan.
If I had a needle and thread
Fine as I can sew
Sew that girl to my side
Down the road I go
Shady Grove, my little love
Shady Grove, my darling
Shady Grove, my little love
I’m going down to Harlan
Some like to fiddle and dance
Some like to carry
Some like to fiddle and dance
I want to marry
Shady Grove, my little love
Shady Grove, my darling
Shady Grove, my little love
I’m going down to Harlan.
Solo
Shady Grove, Shady grove
Standing in the door
Shoes and stockings in her hand
Bare feet on the floor
Shady Grove, my little love
Shady Grove, my darling
Shady Grove, my little love
I’m going down to Harlan.
Shady Grove, my little love
Shady Grove, my darling
Shady Grove, my little love
I’m going down to Harlan
Shady Grove, my little love
Shady Grove, my darling
Shady Grove, my little love
I’m going down to Harlan
