Chorus:
Shady Grove, my little love, Shady Grove, I know. Shady
Grove, my little love, bound for Shady Grove. (Last time: Bound for Shady Grove. (Right on over to
Lonesome Traveler)
Lips as red as the bloomin' rose, eyes of the deepest brown, You are the
darlin' of my heart stay 'til the sun goes down.
(Chorus)
I went to see my Shady
Grove standin' by the door, shoes and stockings in her hand little bare feet on the
floor.
(Chorus)
I wish'd I had a big fat horse, corn to feed him on, pretty little
girl to stay at home, you feed him when I'm gone.
(Chorus)
Well, (Yeah, yeah,
yeah) I am a lonely and a lonesome traveler (Repeat twice)
I've been a-travelin' on.
I
traveled in the mountains and in the valleys, (Repeat twice)
Well, I've been a-travelin'
on.
I traveled cold and then I traveled hungry, well (Repeat twice)
I've been
a-travelin' on.
Hey, one of these days I'm gonna stop all my travelin', well (Repeat
twice)
Stop all this travelin' on.
I'm gonna keep right on a-travelin' on that road to
freedom (Repeat twice)
Well, I've been a-travelin' on. |
