lyrics

Peaches in the summertime
apples in the fall
If I can't have the girl I love
I don't want none at all

Shady grove my sweet love
shady grove I know
shady grove my true love
I'm bound for shady grove

Wish I had a banjo string
made of golden twine
every tune I'd pick on it
I'd wish that girl was mine

Wish I had a needle and thread
fine as I could sew
sew that pretty girl to my side
and down the road I'd go

Some come here to fiddle and dance
some come here to tarry
some come here to fiddle and dance
we are here to marry
