doc watson – shady grove (songs for little pickers) lyrics

Loading...

[verse 1]
cheeks as red a blooming rose
and eyes of the prettiest brown
she’s the darling of my heart
sweetest little girl in towm

[verse 2]
wish i had a glass of wine
and bread and meat for two
i’d set it out on a golden plate
and i’d give it all to you

[chorus]
shady grove, my little love
shady grove i say
shady grove, my little love
i’m bound to go away

[verse 3]
when i was a little boy
i wanted a barlow knife
but now i want little shady grove
to say she’ll be my wife

[verse 4]
a kiss from pretty little shady grove
is sweet as brandy wine
and there ain’t no girl in this old world
that’s prettier than mine
[chrous]
shady grove, my little love
shady grove i say
shady grove, my little love
i’m bound to go away

[verse 5]
went to see my shady grove
she was standing in the door
her shoes and stockin’s in her hand
and her little bare feet on the floor

[verse 6]
i wish i had a big ol’ horse
and the grain to feed him on
little shady grove to stay at home
and feed him while i’m gone

[chorus]
shady grove, my little love
shady grove i say
shady grove, my little love
i’m bound to go away

[verse 7]
peaches in the summertime
apples in the fall
if i can’t have little shady grove
i don’t no gal at all
[verse 8]
if i had a needle and thread
as fine as i could sew
i’d sew that pretty girl to my side
and down the raod we’d go

[chorus]
shady grove, my little love
shady grove i say
shady grove, my little love
i’m bound to go away
