Country Roads

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
Country Roads, take me home to the place I belong
West Virginia, mountain momma: take me home, country roads!

All my memories gathered ‘round her, miner’s lady, stranger to blue water
Dark and dusty, painted on the sky, misty taste of moonshine, teardrops in my eye
Country Roads, take me home to the place, I belong
West Virginia, mountain momma: take me home, country roads!

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

Country Roads, take me home to the place, I belong
West Virginia, mountain momma: take me home, country roads!

Country Roads, take me home to the place, I belong
West Virginia, mountain momma: take me home, country roads!
