When the sun comes up on a sleepy little town Down around San Antone And the folks are risin` for another day `Round about their homes The people of the town are strange And they`re proud of where they came Well, you`re talkin` `bout China Grove Oh, China Grove
Well, the preacher and the teacher Lord, they`re a caution They are the talk of the town When the gossip gets to flyin` And they ain`t lyin` When the sun goes fallin` down
They say that the father`s insane And dear Missus Perkin`s a game We`re talkin` `bout the China Grove Oh, China Grove
But every day there`s a new thing comin` The ways of an oriental view The sheriff and his buddies With their samurai swords You can even hear the music at night
And though it`s a part of the Lone Star State People don`t seem to care They just keep on lookin` to the East
Talkin` `bout the China Grove Oh, China Grove
