Shady Groove

Down the road, and up the hill

Round the bend, and behind the mill

When just a kid i used to go

To a place called shady grove

That is where i first met her

She changed my life with one just one word

She called it love but i don't know

I call it goin' down to shady grove

Shady grove, shady grove

In the middle of shady grove

Sometimes we'd steal away at night

All the same the feel was right

There was no city, there was no town

'cause shady grove was all around

We'd just lay down look up and see

The vast expanse of the old, old tree

When our love had turned to lust

Shady grove would cover us

Shady grove, shady grove

In the middle of shady grove

No one would ever come by

We were young and very shy

It seemed to wrap around us both

The place we called shady grove

Not long ago to my surprise

I seemed to have to go back

I went back to that same old spot

The trees were gone - it's a parking lot

Shady grove, shady grove

In the middle of shady grove
