Lyrics

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 momma
 Take me home, country roads
All my memories gathered round her
 Miners lady, stranger to blue water
 Dark and dusty, painted on the sky
 Misty taste of moonshine
 Teardrops 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 mornin hour she calls me
 The radio reminds me of my home far away
 And 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 momma
 Take me home, country roads
Country Roads, take me home
 To the place I belong
 West Virginia, mountain momma
 Take me home, country roads
 Take me home, now country roads
 Take me home, now country roads
