Verse 1:
Almost Heaven, West Virginia,
Blue Ridge Mountains, Shenandoah River.
Life is old here, older than the trees,
younger than the mountains, blowin
like a breeze.
Chorus:
Country Roads, take me home,
to a place, where I belong, West
Virginia, mountain mama, take me home,
country roads.
Verse 2:
All my memories 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.
Chorus:
Country Roads, take me home,
to a place, where I belong, West
Virginia, mountain mama, take me home,
country roads.
Verse 3:
I hear her voice in the morning hour
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.
Chorus:
Country Roads, take me home,
to a place, where I belong, West
Virginia, mountain mama, take me home,
country roads.
Country Roads, take me home,
to a place, where I belong, West
Virginia, mountain mama, take me home,
country roads.
