Description
Shady Grove, my little loveShady Grove I say
Shady Grove, my little love
I'm bound to go away
Cheeks as red a a blooming rose
And eyes of the prettiest brown
She's the darling of my heart
Sweetest lil girl in town
I wish I had a big fine horse
And the corn to feed him on
Shady Grove would stay at home
And feed him while I'm gone
Went to see my Shady Grove
She was standing in the door
Her shoes and stockins in her hand
And her little bare feet on the floor
When I was a little boy
I wanted a Barlow knife
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
A kiss from pretty little Shady Grove
Is sweet as brandy wine
And there ain't no girl in this old world
That's prettier than mine
Shady Grove, my little love
Shady Grove I say
Shady Grove, my little love
I'm bound to go away

Watercolor on paper, 11x17". I used exclusively watercolor on this pretty lady, I really see my improvement, slowly but surely!
Be sure to check out the first in this series, Drownin' Creek.
