Shady grove, pretty little miss
Shady grove my darlin
Shady grove, Pretty little miss
Goin back to Harlan.

--- Instrumental ---

Well, the boys all call me pretty little miss
It don't ever phase me
But everytime he calls my name
It nearly drives me crazy.

Shady grove, retty little miss
Shady grove my darlin
Shady grove, pretty little miss
Goin back to Harlan.

--- Instrumental ---

Momma says he's not my type
He really loves another
But he's gonna marry me
When I turn twelve this summer.

Shady grove, pretty little miss
Shady grove my darlin
Shady grove, pretty little miss
Goin back to Harlan.

--- Instrumental ---

Well, we'll paint and powder, curl my hair
The day he came a callin
He ran off with my older sis
And I commenced to squallin'.

Shady grove, pretty little miss
Shady grove my darlin
Shady grove, pretty little miss
Goin back to Harlan.

--- Instrumental ---

Oh, spring has sprung, summers gone
The fall is quickly fadin'
I guess I'll spend my winter months
A sad and lonely maiden.

Shady grove, pretty little miss
Shady grove my darlin
Shady grove, pretty little miss
Goin back to Harlan...
