God's Country
Blake Shelton
Right outside of this one church town There's a gold dirt road to a whole lot of nothin' Got a deed to the land, but it ain't my ground This is God's country We pray for rain, and thank Him when it's fallen 'Cause it brings a grain and a little bit of money We put it back in the plate I guess that's why they call it God's country I saw the light in the sunrise Sittin' back in the 40 on the muddy riverside Gettin' baptized in holy water and shine With the dogs runnin' Saved by the sound of the been found Dixie whistled in the wind, that'll get you Heaven bound The Devil went down to Georgia, but he didn't stick around This is God's country We turned the dirt and worked until the week's done We take a break and break bread on Sunday And then do it all again 'Cause we're proud to be from God's country (Yeah, yeah) I saw the light in the sunrise Sittin' back in the 40 on the muddy riverside Gettin' baptized in holy water and shine With the dogs runnin' Saved by the sound of the been found Dixie whistled in the wind, that'll get you Heaven bound The Devil went down to Georgia but he didn't stick around This is God's country (Yeah) (This is God's country) (This is God's country) God's country I don't care what my headstone reads Or what kind of pine wood box I end up in When it's my time, lay me six feet deep In God's country (Yeah, yeah) I saw the light in the sunrise Sittin' back in the 40 on the muddy riverside Gettin' baptized in holy water and shine With the dogs runnin' Saved by the sound of the been found Dixie whistled in the wind, that'll get you Heaven bound The devil went down to Georgia but he didn't stick around This is God's country (God's country) Yeah, I saw the light in the sunrise Sittin' back in the 40 on the muddy riverside Gettin' baptized in holy water and shine With the dogs runnin' Saved by the sound of the been found Dixie whistled in the wind, that'll get you Heaven bound The Devil went down to Georgia but he didn't stick around This is God's country
