lyrics

Good and faithful servant
With strong and tender hands
Small town disposition
Two legs on which to stand

Keeping us from temptation
With the down home tip of her tongue
Salvation’s never felt as good
This isn’t the first time that she’s come

Trouble will soon be over
Speaks the woman up on high
Easing us into rapture
Taking bets on who survives

The world is full of tricks
And we are vulnerable
Stick your sword into the sand
Paradise is irresistible

Get behind your master
That’s where you belong
She’s riding on a white horse
Love is the fulfillment of the law

Don’t forget that she’s a country girl
Making her way through America
She’s just a country girl
Only in America

Good and faithful servant
Closer than any friend
She’s an inspiration to the people
With a will that never bends

Don’t ask too many questions
Have faith she will provide
Every spiritual desire
That complements my pride

Oh ain’t it a kindness
Our Savior at long last
Making all of our decisions
Condemnation when we’re bad

The world is full of tricks
And we are vulnerable
Stick your sword into the sand
Paradise is irresistible

No more expectations
No more of your demands
If you’re looking for a partner
Must be a stranger in this land

Because she ain’t that kind of woman
No she ain’t that type of girl
