God's Country Lyrics

Bill Anderson God's Country

Too country, what's that?
Is that like too Republican or too Democrat?

Is it too far to the left, too far to the right?
Too straight down the middle, is it too black or too white?
Are the biscuits too fluffy, is the chicken too fried?
Is the gravy too thick, are the peas too black eyed?

Is the iced tea too sweet, does it have too much tang?
Are there too many lemons in mama's lemon meringue?
Are the roses too red is the sunshine too bright?
Are there too many stars in the heavens at night?

Are there too many fish that still jump in the stream?
Is the sky too blue, is the clean air too clean?

Too country what's that?
Is it too many pearls of wisdom under grandpa's old hat?

Is it just too old fashioned, is it just too antique?
Is the question too strong, is the answer too weak?
Is the grace too amazing, is the steeple too tall?
Are there too many yes sirs, yes madams and how're y'all?

Is the message too real, too close to the bone?
Do the fiddle and steel remind you too much of home?
Is honest and true just not in demand?
Too country, too country, too country I don't understand
