about

i added a verse - that's what you do, right?

lyrics

peaches in the summertime
apples in the fall
i can't have the one i love,
i don't want none at all.

shady grove, my little love,
shady grove my darlin,
shady grove, my lil love,
i'm bound for shady grove.

wish i had a banjo string,
made o gold and twine
every tune i play on it,
i wish that love was mine.

wish i had a needle n thread,
fine as i could sew.
sew that pretty one to my side
and down the road we'd go.

some come here to fiddle and dance
some come here to tarry.
some come here to fiddle n dance
but we came here to marry.

every night when i come home
my honey i try to please 'im
more i try, the worse he gets
be damned if i don't leave him

so i said, swing around pretty lil mister,
swing around, my daisy
swing around, pretty little mister
oh, you drive me crazy.

first i saw my shady grove,
he was standin in the door
bells n flowers in his hair and
dirty bare feet on the floor

last i saw my shady grove
he was walkin down the highway
i stood and cried with my thumb to the side
and prayed he'd look back my way.

wasn't sure what to expect when I picked this album up, I had only heard the first song but it was n-y-p so I got it anyhow. After listening through it at least 100 times in the last couple days, I can say with confidence that if there's every a re-release on the cassettes I'd get it in a heartbeat. Willow Barbeau
