  • "In God's Country" is a song by Irish rock band U2 and the seventh track from their 1987 album The Joshua Tree. The song was released as the album's fourth single in November 1987. Bono has stated that he originally didn't know whether the song was about Ireland or America, but eventually dedicated it to the Statue of Liberty. "In God's Country" was released as a single in Canada and the U.S. Nevertheless, it also charted in the United Kingdom as an import. The video made for this single is less known than others from the album and appeared as a segment in Outside it's America, a documentary tracking the band's first few weeks on tour through the American southwest in 1987. Sales of the single may have been hampered by the fact that its b-sides were two tracks from The Joshua Tree album instead of the usual non-album tracks. The song appears in the U2 rockumentary Rattle and Hum with one verse edited out. It is also used in the closing credits of the movie Three Kings. The Canadian release was available on 7", 12" and cassette, while the US release was limited to 7" only. The B-sides and cover art are identical to the New Zealand-only single release of "One Tree Hill".
  • "In God's Country" è un brano musicale del gruppo rock irlandese degli U2, pubblicato come singolo nel 1987, estratto come quarto singolo dell'album The Joshua Tree. Bono ha dichiarato che inizialmente aveva progettato che la canzone parlasse dell'Irlanda, ma alla fine si è trovato a scrivere un brano sugli Stati Uniti d'America. "In God's Country" è stato pubblicato come singolo in Canada e negli U.S.A.. Il video è meno noto rispetto a quelli degli altri singoli dell'album. Esso appare nel documentario Outside it's America, registrato dalla band durante le prime cinque settimane del Joshua Tree Tour nel sud-ovest dell'America, nel 1987. La canzone appare anche nell'altro documentario degli U2, Rattle and Hum, ma il testo differisce in un verso.
