Lyrics:
{ 1 phrase guitar }
{ 1 phrase guitar with keys }
{ 2 phrase all }
When the sun comes up on the sleepy little town
Down around San Antoine
and the folks are rising for another day
Round about their home
People of the town are strange
and the power they wear they gain
Well you're talking 'bout China Grove
                         ( Talking 'bout your China Grove )
Wo ho ho! ( Wo oh! ) (( China Grove ))
Well the preacher and the teacher
No they are caution
They are the talk of the town
When the gossip gets to flying and they ain't in line
When the sun go falling down
They say that their father's insane
and damn Miss Perkins again
We're talking 'bout your China Grove
                         ( Talking 'bout your China Grove )
Wo ho ho! ( Wo oh! ) (( China Grove ))
{ Oohs start }                { B falsetto oohs }
Well every day there's a new thing coming
The ways are but all brand new
The shiver-banding buddies with the samurai swords
You can even hear the music at night
and those it's a power of a lone star state
People don't seem to care
We'll just keep on looking to the east
{ pause }
{ guitar }
{ all together }
{ guitar solo }
We're talking 'bout your China Grove
                         ( Talking 'bout your China Grove )
Wo ho ho! ( Wo oh! ) (( China Grove ))       { END }
