Shady Grove / Lonesome Traveler

[Intro]
From the people in the Appalachian Mountains
We have gotten some of our finest American folk songs

(We'd like to take two of our favorites right now
Put them together in a medley
Actually, they ain't only our favorite, they're the only two we know
Huh-huh-huh-huh-huh
Anyhow, the two songs are called "Shady Grove" and "Lonesome Traveler")

How's that?

("Shady Grove")

[Shady Grove]

[Chorus]
Shady Grove, my little love
Shady Grove, I know
Shady Grove, my little love
Bound for Shady Grove

[Verse 1]
Lips as red as the bloomin' rose
Eyes of the deepest brown
You are the darlin' of my heart
Stay 'til the sun goes down

[Chorus]
Shady Grove, my little love
Shady Grove, I know
Shady Grove, my little love
Bound for Shady Grove

[Verse 2]
I went to see my Shady Grove
Standin' by the door
Shoes and stockings in her hand
Little bare feet on the floor

[Chorus]
Shady Grove, my little love
Shady Grove, I know
Shady Grove, my little love
Bound for Shady Grove

[Verse 3]
I wished I had a big fat horse
Corn to feed him on
Pretty little girl to stay at home
You feed him when I'm gone

[Chorus]
Shady Grove, my little love
Shady Grove, I know
Shady Grove, my little love
Bound for Shady Grove
Bound for Shady Grove

Ride on over to Lonesome Traveler

[Lonesome Traveler]

[Verse 4]
(Yeah)
Well, (Yeah, yeah, yeah) I am a lonely and a lonesome traveler
Well, I am a lonely and a lonesome traveler
Well, I am a lonely and a lonesome traveler
I've been travelin' on

[Verse 5]
I traveled in the mountains and in the valleys
I traveled in the mountains and in the valleys
I traveled in the mountains and in the valleys
Well, I've been travelin' on

[Verse 6]
Hey well, I traveled cold, and then I traveled hungry
I traveled cold, and then I traveled hungry
Well, I traveled cold, and then I traveled hungry
Well, I've been travelin' on

[Verse 7]
Hey, one of these days I'm gonna stop all my travelin'
Well, one of these days I'm gonna stop all my travelin'
Well, one of these days I'm gonna stop all my travelin'
Stop all this travelin' on

[Verse 8]
I'm gonna keep right on a-travelin' on that road to freedom
Gonna keep right on a-travelin' that road to freedom
Gonna keep right on a-travelin' that road to freedom
Well, I've been a-travelin' on

[Outro]
Thank you very much
