Almost Heaven, West Virginia, Blue Ridge Mountains, Shenandoah River.
Life is old there, older than the trees, younger than the mountains, growin'
like a breeze.
!--Chorus--
Country Roads, take me home, to the place 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 the place I belong
West Virginia, mountain mama, take me home, country roads.
!--Bridge--
I hear her voice, in the mornin' hour she calls me.
The radio reminds me of my home far away.
And drivin' down the road I get a feelin' that I should have been home
yesterday, yesterday.
!--Chorus--
Country Roads, take me home, to the place I belong
West Virginia, mountain mama, take me home, country roads.
!--Chorus--
Country Roads, take me home, to the place I belong
West Virginia, mountain mama, take me home, country roads.
!--Outro--
Take me home, (down) country roads.
Take me home, (down) country roads.
