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 a breeze

Country roads, take me home
To the place I belong (oh, I belong in)
West Virginia (West Virginia), mountain mama (sweet 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 eye

Country roads (oh, country roads), take me home (come set my Missouri)
To the place I belong (oh, I belong in)
West Virginia (West Virginia), mountain mama (sweet mountain mama)
Take me home, country roads

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've been home yesterday, yesterday

Country roads (country roads), take me home (please leave the light on)
To the place I belong (to the place where I belong)
West Virginia (West Virginia), mountain mama (sweet mountain mama)
Take me home, country roads (my West Virginia)

Take me home, country roads (sweet mountain mama)
Take me home (oh, take me home, please take me home)
