God's Country (Acoustic)

Right outside of this one church town
就在這篤信上帝的小鎮之外
There's a gold dirt road to a whole lot of nothin'
一條金黃土路直通那虛無之地
Got a deed to the land, but it ain't my ground
多年守候著這片土地卻也不敢聲稱它為我所有
This is God's country
只因這裡屬於上帝
We pray for rain, and thank Him when it's fallen
人們時常祈雨感恩他賜予來年收成
'Cause it brings a grain and a little bit of money
我們以此謀求生計藉以發家致富
We put it back in the plate
所有付出終有回報
I guess that's why they call it God's country
於是人們堅信這是上帝的土地
I saw the light in the sunrise
朝陽中我窺見一道光
Sittin' back in the 40 on the muddy riverside
獨自坐在後院那泥濘的湖邊
Gettin' baptized in holy water and shine
聖光沐浴中湖水將我靈魂洗禮
With the dogs runnin'
身旁還有家裡的狗自由奔跑
Saved by the sound of the been found
終於覺察到他的存在他的聲音將你我拯救
Dixie whistled in the wind, that'll get you Heaven bound
風中傳來南國的呢喃正是這讓你與天堂那頭緊緊相連
The devil went down to Georgia, but he didn't stick around
惡魔侵襲了佐治亞但他也沒能逗留多久
This is God's country
只因這方土地屬於上帝
We turned the dirt and worked until the week's done
在泥土中翻耕總算迎來了一周終結
We take a break and break bread on Sunday
放鬆歇息一會兒週日清晨一同禱告
And then do it all again
每周如此從不厭倦
'Cause we're proud to be from God's country
只因我們共同來自上帝庇佑的鄉村之土
I saw the light in the sunrise
朝陽中我窺見一道光
Sittin' back in the 40 on the muddy riverside
獨自坐在後院那泥濘的湖邊
Gettin' baptized in holy water and shine
聖光沐浴中湖水將我靈魂洗禮
With the dogs runnin'
身旁還有家裡的狗自由奔跑
Saved by the sound of the been found
終於覺察到他的存在他的聲音將你我拯救
Dixie whistled in the wind, that'll get you Heaven bound
風中傳來南國的呢喃正是這讓你與天堂那頭緊緊相連
The devil went down to Georgia but he didn't stick around
惡魔侵襲了佐治亞但他也沒能逗留多久
This is God's country
只因這方土地屬於上帝
I don't care what my headstone reads
我不在乎墓碑被刻下何種文字
Or what kind of pine wood box I end up in
或是被後人以怎樣的方式安葬
When it's my time, lay me six feet deep
當我大限將至請將我埋在土中
In God's country
就在這上帝掌管的土地上
I saw the light in the sunrise
朝陽中我窺見一道光
Sittin' back in the 40 on the muddy riverside
獨自坐在後院那泥濘的湖邊
Gettin' baptized in holy water and shine
聖光沐浴中湖水將我靈魂洗禮
With the dogs runnin'
身旁還有家裡的狗自由奔跑
Saved by the sound of the been found
終於覺察到他的存在他的聲音將你我拯救
Dixie whistled in the wind, that'll get you Heaven bound
風中傳來南國的呢喃正是這讓你與天堂那頭緊緊相連
The devil went down to Georgia but he didn't stick around
惡魔侵襲了佐治亞但他也沒能逗留多久
This is God's country
只因這方土地屬於上帝
Yeah, I saw the light in the sunrise
朝陽中我窺見一道光
Sittin' back in the 40 on the muddy riverside
獨自坐在後院那泥濘的湖邊
Gettin' baptized in holy water and shine
聖光沐浴中湖水將我靈魂洗禮
With the dogs runnin'

Saved by the sound of the been found
終於覺察到他的存在他的聲音將你我拯救
