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

   I see someone says the "been found" lyric could be a reference to "Amazing Grace" but there is an actual song called "Been Found" on an album by the same name by Ashford & Simpson. Is this what Blake Shelton could be referencing instead? It definitely has an uplifting and gospel-like sound to it!

   "Saved by the sound of being found" refers to the hymn Amazing Grace. "Amazing grace, how sweet the sound that saved a wretch like me.

   "Dixie whistled in the wind that'll get you Heaven bound".
   I think this means Dixie (the southern states) tells him, by a sound in the wind, that being saved (above lines) will get you to Heaven.

   Everything belongs to God; not to us and there's nothing we can do about it.
