A Shady grove my little miss
Shady grove my darlin
Shady grove my little miss
E Goin' back to Harl A an
A Well, coffee grows on white oak trees
The river flows with brandy
The rocks on the hills are covered with gold
E The girls a sweeter than ca A ndy
(Chorus)
A Well, every time I walk that road
It's always dark and cloudy
Every time I see that gal
E I always tell her ho A wdy
(Chorus)
A Well, I went down to Shady Grove
She asked me in for supper
Stubbed my toe on the table leg
E And ran my nose in A the butter
(Chorus)
A Well, Her checks are red as the blooming rose
Her smile is always sunny
She's the darlin of my heart
E Love her better than A honey
