Verse 1: Down at Shady Place, where the Douglas firs grow, A century farm where the roots run low. Jock and Pam keep the family’s dream, Through every sign and every stream. Chorus: Oh, Shady Place, where the stories are told, Generations thrive in the green and gold. From Elderberry Patch to South Pond’s shore, The heart of the farm beats forevermore. Verse 2: Each July, the family gathers near, The games and laughter fill the summer air. Horseshoes clanging, holy board’s toss, Axes flying, no skill’s ever lost. Chorus: Oh, Shady Place, where the stories are told, Generations thrive in the green and gold. From Orchard Road to the lilac tree, It’s the love of the land that keeps us free. Bridge: Four homes stand where the elders stayed, Built on dreams that the family laid. By the campfire’s glow, we sing our song, In the land where our spirits belong. Verse 3: Under the firs, we play baseball games, Bingo’s numbers called by candle flames. A week in July, where the past meets today, Shady Place shines in its timeless way. Chorus: Oh, Shady Place, where the stories are told, Generations thrive in the green and gold. From Elderberry Patch to South Pond’s shore, The heart of the farm beats forevermore. Outro: Through the trails and trees, the signs remain, Marking love and pride in Shady Lane. Jock and Pam’s care, a legacy long, Shady Place lives on in this song.
