The rumor started spreadin' as we were draggin' main
Party out on Miller's farm, some and raise some cain
The convoy started forming down at the Frosty Freeze
By sundown we were rollin' down Highway 23 Pick-up trucks and trailers and cars of ever'y kind
With the Bailey Brother's John Deere draggin up behind
Roll on down Poor Valley turn right at Fisher's Creek
There's a bonfire on Newman's Ridge, soon we're gonna be Dancin' in God's country, thirty miles from town

Man they've got 'em rosined up we're gonna do si do
Billy's on the banjo Sammy's slappin' spoons
Jimmy plays a Martin and he's a singing fool Dancin' in God's country, thirty miles from town
Summer stars up in the sky, bare feet on the ground
Dancin' in God's country young and wild and free
As close to heaven here on earth as I will ever be Dancin' in God's country, thirty miles from town
Summer stars up in the sky, bare feet on the ground
Dancin' in God's country young and wild and free
As close to heaven here on earth as I will ever be
