Lyrics
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 the breeze
Country Roads, take me home to the place I belong
West Virginia, mountain mama, take me home
All my memories gather '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 mama, take me home
I hear her voice, in the morning hour she calls me
Radio reminds me of my home far away
Driving down the road I get a feeling
That I should've been home yesterday
Country Roads, take me home to the place I belong
West Virginia, mountain mama, take me home
