Country Roads

Almost heaven, West Virginia
Blue ridge mountains, Shenandoah river
Life is old there, older than the trees
Younger than the mountains, blowing like a breeze

Country roads, take me home
To the place I belong
West Virginia, mountain mamma
Take me home, oh country roads

All my memories, gather round her
Modest lady, stranger to blue water
Dark and dusty, painted on the sky
Misty taste of moonshine, teardrop in my eye

Country roads, take me home
To the place I belong
West Virginia, mountain mamma
Take me home, oh country roads

I hear her voice in the morning hour that she calls me
The radio reminds me of my home that is far away
And while I'm driving down the road I get a feeling
That I should have been home yesterday

Country roads, take me home
To the place I belong
West Virginia, mountain mamma
Take me home, oh country roads

Country roads, take me home
To the place I belong
West Virginia, mountain mamma
Take me home, oh country roads

Take me home, down country roads
