When I was 22 a young lawyer took one of my songs and put it on the ‘B' side of his recording of Ave Maria. He invited me to watch the recording session at Criteria in Miami, Florida. Since that moment all I have ever wanted was to have my music recorded by professional musicians and sung by established artists. This truly is a monumental task as I do not perform live so I have recorded my own material as a means to get exposure and as a way for artists to be able to judge the “cover” worth of my songs. I am looking for a publishing deal. Contact Info: Jim Blachura C/O Stablesongs Phone: 336 995 0813 E Mail: saintlymanmusic@yahoo.com Saintly Man Music /ASCAP

Story behind the song
listening to Pink Floyd and started singing the words to Shady Grove...so I used the chords and recorded it like this
Lyrics
Shady grove my little love Shady grove I say Shady grove my little love I’m bound for shady grove Wish I was in shady grove Sittin’ on a rockin’ chair And if those blues would bother me I'd rock away from there Had a banjo made of gold Every string would shine The only song that it would play Was “I wish that girl was mine” When I was in shady grove Heard them pretty birds sing Next time I go to shady grove I’ll take along a diamond ring When you go to catch a fish Fish with a hook and line When you go to court a girl Better never look behind When I was a little bitty boy All I wanted was a knife Now that I am a great big man I'm lookin’ for a pretty little wife Wish I had a big fat horse And corn to feed her on Wish I had a pretty little girl To feed her when I’m gone
