Columbine

"Red fox jump into my path
Shining there in the sun
Then he gave me a little laugh
Flipped his tail and run

Blackbird drinking in the watergrass
Twinkle in her eye
Feathers shine all purple-green
Then away she fly

Shady Grove, my little love
Shady Grove I say
Shady Grove, my little love
I'll be back someday

Looking for the One I love
Could that one be you?
Looking for the One I love
One who loves me true

Shady Grove, Shady Grove
Shady Grove, my darling
Shady Grove, my little love
You're the one I'm calling

Do not touch the Columbine
Leave it there in the sun
It'll fade right in your hand
See what you have done

Shady Grove, my little love
Shady Grove I say
Shady Grove, my little love
I'll see you someday"

Shady Grove, Pierce Pettis
