Lyrics: ‘God’s Country’

-

HI, My name is Shelton from Speciss College in Harare. Please publish lyrics of “God’s Country” by Blake Shelton.

Right outside of this one church town There’s a gold dirt road to a whole lot of nothing

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 fallin’

‘Cause it brings a grain and a little bit of money

We put it back in a plate, I guess that’s why they call it

God’s country

I saw the light in a sunrise

Sittin’ back in a 40 on the muddy river side

Gettin’ baptised in holy water and shine with the dogs runnin’

Saved by the sound of the being found Dixie whistle 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 turn the dirt and work until the week’s done

We take a break and break bread on

Sunday

Then do it all again ‘cause we’re proud to be

From God’s country (Yeah)

I saw the light in a sunrise

Sittin’ back in a 40 on the muddy river side

Gettin’ baptised in holy water and shine with the dogs runnin’

Saved by the sound of the being found Dixie whistle 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

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 6 feet deep in God’s country

I saw the light in a sunrise

Sittin’ back in a 40 on the muddy river side

Gettin’ baptised in holy water and shine with the dogs runnin’

Saved by the sound of the being found Dixie whistle 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
