Shady Grissom's Grove


The crawfish are a boiling


Corn shuckers are a toiling


There ain't nothing else they'd rather do

The band strikes up some creole


The rhythm hits drifts deep in your soul
Under a sky of midnight blue

Dresses are twirling, hands are clapping

               


Hound dogs and babies are soundly napping

                 


There's so much fun it orta be a sin
And they'll be sure to do it again
Down on Shady Grissom's Grove

Lester burned the filets
Man, they like it that way


Mama pulled the cork from her moonshine



Frogs and crickets are mocking each other

      

            
Three young gals are fighting over brother
Other than that everything's just fine



Dresses are twirling, hands are clapping
Hound dogs and babies are soundly napping
There's so much fun it orta be a sin
And they'll be sure to do it again
Down on Shady Grissom's Grove
