Shady Grove Songtext
von Among the Oak & Ash

Shady Grove, my little love
Shady Grove, I know
Shady Grove, my little love
I′m bound for the Shady Grove

I 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 'til the sun goes down


Shady Grove, my little love
Shady Grove, I say
Oh, Shady Grove, my little love
Don′t wait for the Judgement Day

I wish I had a banjo string made of golden twine
Every tune that I would play, I wish that girl was 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
Oh Shady Grove, my little love
Don't wait for the Judgement Day
