Blake Shelton - God’s Country lyrics

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 the 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 a sunrise
Sittin' back in a 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 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 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

(This is God's country) god's country

I don't care what my headstone reads
Or what kind of pinewood box I end up in
When it's my time, lay me six feet deep
In God's country (yeah)

I saw the light in a sunrise
Sittin' back in a 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, I saw the light)
Yeah, I saw the light in a sunrise
Sittin' back in a 40 on the muddy riverside
Gettin' baptized in holy water and
'shine with the dogs runnin' (yeah)
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
