God and Country Music Lyrics
[Verse 1]
God and country music
Like whiskey and a prayer
Like Johnny Cash's arm 'round Billy Graham
God and country music
They both never really change
You find 'em when you need 'em where you stand
[Chorus]
There's always lost in the found
And darkness in the "I saw the light"
It's livin' in those small towns
In some church or backroad honky-tonk tonight
It's a dance between the sin and the salvation
Come hell or high water, there's two things still worth savin'
God and country music
God and country music
[Verse 2]
God and country music
They both show you the truth
They've seen the low of the valley
And the highs of the mountains, too
Folded hands and guitar strings
Jukebox preachers and angels sing
Call you like they knew ya
Between the hell and hallelujah
[Chorus]
There's always lost in the found
And darkness in the "I saw the light"
It's still livin' in those small towns
In some church or backroad honky-tonk tonight
It's a dance between the sin and the salvation
Come hell or high water, there's two things still worth savin'
God and country music
God and country music
[Chorus]
There's always lost in the found
And darkness in the "I saw the light"
It's still livin' in those small towns
In some church or backroad honky-tonk tonight
It's a dance between the sin and the salvation
Come hell or high water, there's two things still worth savin'
God and country music
God and country music
God and country music
God and country music
God and country music
Like whiskey and a prayer
Like Johnny Cash's arm 'round Billy Graham
God and country music
They both never really change
You find 'em when you need 'em where you stand
There's always lost in the found
And darkness in the "I saw the light"
It's livin' in those small towns
In some church or backroad honky-tonk tonight
It's a dance between the sin and the salvation
Come hell or high water, there's two things still worth savin'
God and country music
God and country music
God and country music
They both show you the truth
They've seen the low of the valley
And the highs of the mountains, too
Folded hands and guitar strings
Jukebox preachers and angels sing
Call you like they knew ya
Between the hell and hallelujah
There's always lost in the found
And darkness in the "I saw the light"
It's still livin' in those small towns
In some church or backroad honky-tonk tonight
It's a dance between the sin and the salvation
Come hell or high water, there's two things still worth savin'
God and country music
God and country music
There's always lost in the found
And darkness in the "I saw the light"
It's still livin' in those small towns
In some church or backroad honky-tonk tonight
It's a dance between the sin and the salvation
Come hell or high water, there's two things still worth savin'
God and country music
God and country music
God and country music
God and country music

This song is beautiful and makes me want to dive more into country music. For me it seems that the writer is not exactly attacking other types of music and culture, but just putting in evidence the qualities of this music genre. God and country music are both conservative meaning that they stay as they started, that's why there are so many elements of purity in this song, specially when the child sings alone. They mean that God and Country Music are pure as a child, something you can always go back to because they'll never change. The songwriter clearly values more the purity more than anything, that's why they choose something old and immutable to save at the end: god and country music.
