Shady Grove Songtext
von Joseph Decosimo

Shady Grove, my little love
Shady Grove, I say
Shady Grove, my little love
I′m bound to go away

Farewell love, a long farewell
Farewell for a while
For if I go, I'll come again
If I go ten thousand miles


Ten thousand miles or more, my love
To England, France, or Spain
This poor heart will never be at ease
Til I see your face again

The crow that is so black, my love
Would surely turn to white
If ever I prove false to thee
Bright day may turn to night

Bright day may turn to night, my love
The elements would mourn
If ever I prove false to thee
The sea may rage and burn
