crooked still - shady grove lyrics
–traditional–
cheeks as red as a bloomin’ rose
eyes of the prettiest brown
she’s the darling of my heart
stay till the sun goes down
chorus:
shady grove my little love
shady grove my darling
shady grove my little love
i’m going back to harlan
first time i saw shady grove
she was standing in the door
shoes and stockings in her hands
and her little feet on the floor
(chorus)
every night when i go home
my wife would try to please her
the more i try the worse she gets
i’ll be d-mned if i don’t leave her
(chorus)
i wished i had a big fat horse
and corn to feed him on and
a pretty little girl to stay at home
feed him when i’m gone
(chorus)
wished i had a banjo string
made of golden twine
and every time i’d play on it
wish that girl was mine
(chorus)
peaches in the summertime
apples in the fall
if i can’t have the one i love
i won’t have none at all
(chorus until fade)
