Take Me Home Country Roads

(album: Loving Her Was Easier - 1971)

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 mama, take me home country roads

All my mem'ries gather round her
Miner's 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 mama, take me home country roads
Country roads, take me home to the place I belong
West Virginia mountain mama, take me home country roads

I hear her voice in the morning as she calls me
The radio reminds me of my home far away
And driving down the road I get a feeling
That I should have been home yesterday, yesterday

Country roads, take me home to the place I belong
West Virginia mountain mama, take me home country roads
Country roads, take me home to the place I belong
West Virginia mountain mama, take me home country roads

Take me home country roads...
