Text: John Denver. Country Roads.
Almost Heaven, West Virginia
Blue Ridge Mountains, Shenan Doah 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
West Virginia, mountain mama
Take me home, country roads
All my mem'ries, gathered 'round her
Minor'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 mama
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 the 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
Country roads, take me home
To the place, I belong
West Virginia, West Virginia, mountain mama, oh mama
Take me home, country roads
Take me home, that country roads
Take me home, that country roads
Blue Ridge Mountains, Shenan Doah 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
West Virginia, mountain mama
Take me home, country roads
All my mem'ries, gathered 'round her
Minor'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 mama
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 the 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
Country roads, take me home
To the place, I belong
West Virginia, West Virginia, mountain mama, oh mama
Take me home, country roads
Take me home, that country roads
Take me home, that country roads
