The Shady Grove
Black Crowes

Meet me by the banks of the sweet primrose

Follow it down to the shady grove

Bonnie blow the breeze by the cabin door

No two lovers could ask for more

So grab your fiddle and your old banjo

Play a country blues so sweet and slow

We'll sing along to the drunkard's doom

And rock all night by the silvery moon

These old trees grow straight to heaven

So it goes in the shady grove

When the old hen crackles and the ground gets cold

Our fine buck skin dances through the snow

We'll take to town on a Saturday night

You and me baby make such a sight

Whiskey, wine, name your pleasure

So it goes in the shady grove

Hey boys, gather round

We'll put it up and they'll tear it down

Hey boys, rockabye

Kiss the pretty girls goodbye

Hey boys, up on high

Don't you stop 'til you reach the sky

Hey boys, let it ring

A song for everyone to sing

When the fish start biting at the new mayflies

The muddy roads have all done dried

The honeysuckle says it's summertime

That old yellow sun is mighty kind

Hear the seasons come with reasons

So it goes in the shady grove

Hey boys, up on high

Don't you stop 'til you reach the sky

Hey boys, let it ring

A song for everyone to sing

Won't you be my lullaby, babe?

In the sweet bye and bye, babe

It's okay to cry and let the sadness pass you by

And know I'll always love you, babe

Hey boys, gather round

I'll put it up and they'll tear it down

Hey boys, rockabye

Kiss the pretty girls goodbye

Hey boys, up on high

Don't you stop 'til you reach the sky

Hey boys, let it ring

A song for everyone to sing

A song for everyone to sing

A song for everyone to sing

A song for everyone to sing

A song for everyone to sing
