Shady Grove Songtext
von Bill Monroe

Shady Grove my little miss
Shady Grove my darlin′
Shady Grove my little miss
I'm goin′ back to Harlan

Coffee grows on white oak trees
The river flows with brandy
The rocks on the hills are covered with gold
And the girls are sweeter than candy

Shady Grove my little miss
Shady Grove my darlin'
Shady Grove my little miss
I'm goin′ back to Harlan


I wish I was an apple
Hangin′ on a tree
Every time that little girl passed
She'd take a bite of me

Shady Grove my little miss
Shady Grove my darlin′
Shady Grove my little miss
I'm goin′ back to Harlan

Every time I go that road
It's always dark and cloudy
Every time I see that girl
I always tell her howdy

Shady Grove my little miss
Shady Grove my darlin′
Shady Grove my little miss
I'm goin' back to Harlan


Shady Grove my little miss
Shady Grove my darlin′
Shady Grove my little miss
I′m goin' back to Harlan
