China Grove

China Grove - Main Station

Lyrics by：Tom Johnston

Composed 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 I'm talkin' 'bout your China Grove

Woah oh China Grove

The preacher and the teacher

Lord they're a caution they are the talk of the town

And when the gossip gets to flyin' and they ain't lyin'

When the sun goes underground

They say that the father's insane

And dear Mrs Perkin's a game

Talkin' 'bout your China Grove

Woah oh China Grove

Every day there's a new thing comin'

Ways of an oriental view

The sheriff and his buddies with their Samurai swords

You can even hear the music at night

Though it's a part of the Lone Star State

People don't seem to care

They just keep on lookin' to the easy way
