China Grove [The Doobie Brothers] (By: Tom Johnston) When the sun comes up on a sleepy little town Down around San Antone And the folks are risinG?? for another day G??Round about their homes The people of the town are strange And theyG??re proud of where they came Well, youG??re talkinG?? G??bout China Grove Oh, China Grove Well, the preacher and the teacher Lord, theyG??re a caution They are the talk of the town When the gossip gets to flyinG?? And they ainG??t lyinG?? When the sun goes fallinG?? down They say that the fatherG??s insane And dear Misses PerkinG??s a game WeG??re talkinG?? G??bout the China Grove Oh, China Grove But every day thereG??s a new thing cominG?? 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 itG??s a part of the lone star state People donG??t seem to care They just keep on lookinG?? to the east TalkinG?? G??bout the China Grove Oh, China Grove
