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, |
|
|
|
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, teardrop in my eye. |
|
|
|
Country roads, take me home, |
|
|
|
West Virginia, Mountain Mama, |
|
|
Take me home, country roads. |
|
|
|
I hear her voice, in the morning hours she calls me, |
|
|
Radio reminds me of my home far away, |
|
|
Drivin' down the road, I get a feeling |
|
|
That I should have been home yesterday, yesterday. |
|
|
|
Country roads, take me home, |
|
|
|
West Virginia, Mountain Mama, |
|
|
Take me home, country roads. |
