God’s Country

Back up North the devil had me
But now I'm down here in God's country
She from Satan, he won't find me
Though I know he will try

In the east backslidin's easy
The sun came up and evil seized me
But now I'm right here in God's country
The devil I deny

Way out west there's all that ruckus
Sunsets, you're in Satan's clutches
But once you get bak to God's country
You can save your soul

In England, Spain, even in China
Way over there the Devil finds you
Get on home back to God's country
Like a lamb back to the fold

Once you're there you won't worry
Satan steer clear of God's country
So get yourself back in a hurry
That's where you belong

Man makes laws but they don't matter
Man made rules have no real power
Get right, get back to God's country
Elsewhere you'll just go wrong

Out in the world there's all that ruckus
The Devil gets us in his clutches
But when we get back to God's country
We're back in the fold

Way down south the Devil had me
But now I'm up here in God's country
Safe from Satan, he won't find me
He can't claim my soul
