Shady Grove

Peaches in the summertime
Apples in the fall
If I can't get the girl I love
I don't want none at all

Shady Grove, my little love
Shady Grove, I know
Shady Grove, my little love
I'm bound for Shaddy Grove

I wish I had a needle and thread
The finest I could sew
Sew that pretty girl 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 Shady Grove

Wish I had a needle and thread
Fine as I could sew
I'd sew that pretty girl 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 Shady Grove

Some come here to fiddle and dance
Some come here to tarry
Some here to fiddle and dance
I come here to marry

Shady Grove, my little love
Shady Grove, I know
Shady Grove, my little love
I'm bound for Shady Grove

Every night when I go home
My wife, I try to please her
The more I try, the worse she gets
Damned if I don't leave her

Shady Grove, my little love
Shady Grove, I know
Shady Grove, my little love
I'm bound for Shady Grove

Shady Grove, my little love
Shady Grove, my darlin'
Shady Grove, my little love
I goin' back to town

Shady Grove, my little love
Shady Grove, my darlin'
Shady Grove, my little love
I'm bound for Shady Grove
