1. Create Custom TextView.

public class TextViewDrawable extends android.support.v7.widget.AppCompatTextView {

    public TextViewDrawable(Context context, @Nullable AttributeSet attrs) {
        super(context, attrs);
    }


    /**
     * Support Only Drawable Left or Right
     */
    @Override
    protected void dispatchDraw(Canvas canvas) {
        super.dispatchDraw(canvas);

        int heightTextView = getHeight();
        int centerTextView = heightTextView / 2;
        Rect r = new Rect();
        getLineBounds(0, r);
        int lineHeight = r.bottom - r.top +1;
        int centerLine = lineHeight / 2;
        int topDrawable = centerLine - centerTextView;
        Drawable[] compoundDrawables = getCompoundDrawables();
        Drawable drawableLeft = compoundDrawables[0];
        if (drawableLeft != null) {
            drawableLeft.setBounds(0, topDrawable, drawableLeft.getIntrinsicWidth(), drawableLeft.getIntrinsicHeight() + topDrawable);
        }

        Drawable drawableRight = compoundDrawables[2];
        if (drawableRight != null) {
            drawableRight.setBounds(0, topDrawable, drawableRight.getIntrinsicWidth(), drawableRight.getIntrinsicHeight() + topDrawable);
        }
    }
}

2. In xml
 <you_package.TextViewDrawable
        android:id="@+id/txt"
        android:layout_width="wrap_content"
        android:layout_height="wrap_content"
        android:background="@android:color/holo_blue_light"
        android:drawableLeft="@drawable/circle_green"
        android:text="Hello World!\nHello World!\nHello World!\nHello World!"
       />
3. Change drawable left or right in code
 txt.setCompoundDrawablesWithIntrinsicBounds(R.drawable.circle_yellow, 0, 0, 0);
