When the sun comes up on a sleepy little town
Do wn around San Anto ne
And the folks are risin' for another day
'R ound about the ir home
The people of the town are s tra nge
And they're p roud of where the y came
Well, you're t alking 'bout Ch-C hina Grove, w hoa ho ho
Wh oa, ho, China G rove
Well, the preacher and the teacher
Lord, they're a caution
Th ey are the talk of t he town
When the gossip gets to flyin'
And they ain't lyin'
When the s un goes fallin' down
They say that the Father's ins ane
And d ear Missus Perkin's a game
We're t alkin' 'bout Ch-C hina Grove, w hoa ho ho
Wh oa, ho, China G rove
But every day 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
The people don't seem to care
Th ey'll just keep on l ookin' to t he east
