Almost heaven, West Virginia,
+
Blue Ridge Mountains
+
Shenandoah River.
+
Life is old there,
+
Older than the trees,
+
Younger than the mountains
+
Growing like a breeze.
+
Country roads, take me home
+
To the place where I belong:
+
West Virginia, mountain mom,
+
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,
+
Teardrop 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 morning hour she calls me,
+
Radio reminds me of my home far away
+
And driving down the road I get a feeling
+
I should have been home yesterday, yesterday
+
Country roads, take me home
+
To the place where I belong:
+
West Virginia, mountain momma,
+
Take me home, country roads.
+
