- The Doobie Brothers
Written by Tom Johnston
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, they're talkin' 'bout China Grove
Whoa
Oh, 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 Mrs. Perkins' a game
Well, they're talkin' 'bout China Grove
Whoa
Oh, oh, China Grove
And everyday 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
(guitar solo)
Well, they're talkin' 'bout China Grove
Whoa
Oh, oh, China Grove
