| [00:26.481] |
When the sun comes up on a sleepy little town |
| [00:30.012] |
Down around San Antone |
| [00:32.933] |
And the folks are risin' for another day |
| [00:36.120] |
'Round about their homes |
| [00:39.238] |
The people of the town are strange |
| [00:42.256] |
And they're proud of where they came |
| [00:47.334] |
You talkin' 'bout your China Grove |
| [00:50.136] |
Whoa, oh (whoa, oh) China Grove |
| [00:59.542] |
Well the preacher and the teacher |
| [01:01.760] |
Lord, they're a caution |
| [01:03.089] |
They are the talk of the town |
| [01:06.057] |
When the gossip gets to flyin' and they ain't lyin' |
| [01:09.510] |
When the sun goes fallin' down |
| [01:12.730] |
They say that the father's insane |
| [01:15.464] |
And dear Mrs. Perkin's a game |
| [01:20.620] |
Talkin' 'bout your China Grove |
| [01:23.017] |
Whoa, oh (whoa, oh) China Grove |
| [01:33.189] |
But everyday there's a new thing comin' |
| [01:36.220] |
The ways of an oriental view |
| [01:38.985] |
The sheriff and his buddies with their samurai swords |
| [01:42.564] |
You can even hear the music at night |
| [01:49.095] |
Though it's a part of the Lone Star State |
| [01:52.079] |
People don't seem to care |
| [01:55.111] |
They just keep on lookin' to the east |
| [02:52.594] |
Talkin' 'bout your China Grove |
| [02:54.985] |
Whoa, oh (whoa, oh) China Grove |
