Lyrics

[Verse 1]
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
[Verse 2]
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
[Chorus]
I saw the light in the 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
[Chorus]
We turned the dirt and worked 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
[Chorus]
Yeah, I saw the light in the 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, yeah
[Bridge]
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
Sing it with me one more time!
[Chorus]
I saw the light in the sunrise
Sittin' back in a 40 on the muddy riverside
Gettin' baptized in holy water and 'shine
With the dogs runnin'
Louder!
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
[Outro]
Listen to me!
There's ten thousand fucking people in here tonight, alright?
From the front to the fucking top of this place
HARDY wants to hear ten thousand motherfuckers from the front to the top
Go! Go!
