about

I've always loved this song. This interpretation of mine involved cutting many original verses. Please forgive me, but it can drag on otherwise!

lyrics

Shady grove, my little love, shady grove I say
Shady grove, my little love, I'm bound to go away

Cheeks as red as a bloomin' rose, eyes of the prettiest brown
She's the darlin' of my heart, the sweetest little girl in town

Shady grove, my little love, shady grove I say
Shady grove, my little love, I'm bound to go away

I wish I had a glass of wine, and bread and meat for two
I'd spread it out on a golden plate, and give it all to you

Shady grove, my little love, shady grove I say
Shady grove, my little love, I'm bound to go away

When I was a little boy, I wanted a Barlow knife
But now I want little shady grove, to say she'll be my wife

Shady grove, my little love, shady grove I say
Shady grove, my little love, I'm bound to go away

Bound to go, bound to go, bound to go away
Bound to go, bound to go, bound to go away

Say she'll be, say she'll be, say she'll be my wife
Say she'll be, say she'll be, say she'll be my wife

Shady grove, my little love, shady grove I say
Shady grove, my little love, I'm bound to go away

Shady grove, my little love, shady grove I say
Shady grove, my little love, I'm bound to go away

Love, my little love, my little love
Love, my little love, my little love.....

I've wanted to sing and make music my whole life, but had been too fearful to open that door. All these years later, I've opened it, and it cannot be closed now! Here's to facing our fears and living our lives!
