China Grove The Doobie Brothers When the sun comes up on the 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 talking 'bout China Grove Wo ho ho! ( Wo 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 flying and they ain't lyin’ When the sun goes falling down They say that the father's insane and dear Miss Perkin’s a game We're talking 'bout your China Grove ( Talking 'bout your China Grove ) Wo ho ho! ( Wo oh! ) (( China Grove )) But every day there'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 it's a part of the Lone Star State People don't seem to care They just keep on looking to the east We're talking 'bout your China Grove ( Talking 'bout your China Grove ) Wo ho ho! ( Wo oh! ) (( China Grove ))
