Story behind the song
Shady river is anywhere you care to go to find some peace and tranquility. I was probably thinking of a place in Florida where I live. The state has so many beautiful rivers with lovely names like Appalachicola, Suwannee, Ichetucknee, and simply the Peace River.
Lyrics
Chorus: Take a walk down by Shady River Take a stroll down that lazy road Take a walk down by Shady River Lose your troubles and your heavy load You've been worrying for a long time Over things you've no control Open the door, let in the sunshine, Feel it warm you body and soul And take a walk down by Shady river road. There's no highway near the Shady River Just the sound of the wind through the Cypress trees Old heron wading in her shiny waters Looking for his supper among the reeds That old river has all he'll ever need Shady River's been here forever Keep flowing free when I'm gone Just sit you down by the peaceful waters Take a listen as they ripple along And find yourself once more in the river's song
