Shady Grove by Blood Oranges Lyrics
When I was a little boy
I wanted to borrow night
Now I am a great big man
And Shady Grove's my wife
Her cheeks is red as a blooming rose
And her eyes the prettiest brown
She's the darling of my heart
The sweetest girl in town
Shady Grove my true love
Shady Grove my darling
Shady Grove my true love
I'm going back to Harlan
Shady Grove my true love
Shady Grove my darling
Shady Grove my true love
I'm going back to Harlan
Peaches in the summertime
Apples in the fall
If I can't have my Shady Grove
I'll have no love at all
Some come here to fiddle and dance
Some come here to tarry
Some come here to fiddle and dance
Some come here to marry
Shady Grove my true love
Shady Grove my darling
Shady Grove my true love
I'm going back to Harlan
Shady Grove my true love
Shady Grove my darling
Shady Grove my true love
I'm going back to Harlan
Shady Grove my true love
Shady Grove my darling
Shady Grove my true love
I'm going back to Harlan
Shady Grove my true love
Shady Grove my darling
Shady Grove my true love
I'm going back to Harlan
I wanted to borrow night
Now I am a great big man
And Shady Grove's my wife
Her cheeks is red as a blooming rose
And her eyes the prettiest brown
She's the darling of my heart
The sweetest girl in town
Shady Grove my true love
Shady Grove my darling
Shady Grove my true love
I'm going back to Harlan
Shady Grove my true love
Shady Grove my darling
Shady Grove my true love
I'm going back to Harlan
Peaches in the summertime
Apples in the fall
If I can't have my Shady Grove
I'll have no love at all
Some come here to fiddle and dance
Some come here to tarry
Some come here to fiddle and dance
Some come here to marry
Shady Grove my true love
Shady Grove my darling
Shady Grove my true love
I'm going back to Harlan
Shady Grove my true love
Shady Grove my darling
Shady Grove my true love
I'm going back to Harlan
Shady Grove my true love
Shady Grove my darling
Shady Grove my true love
I'm going back to Harlan
Shady Grove my true love
Shady Grove my darling
Shady Grove my true love
I'm going back to Harlan
