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 mama

Take me home, country roads

♪ ♪ ♪

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 eyes

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 mornin' hour she calls me

Radio reminds me of my home far away

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 mama

Take me home, country roads (everybody sing it)

Country roads, take me home

To the place I belong

West Virginia, mountain mama

Take me home, country roads

Take me home down country roads

Take me home down 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 mama Take me home, country roads 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 eyes 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 mornin' hour she calls me Radio reminds me of my home far away 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 mama Take me home, country roads (everybody sing it) Country roads, take me home To the place I belong West Virginia, mountain mama Take me home, country roads Take me home down country roads Take me home down country roads
