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, they gather 'round her Miner's lady, stranger to blue water Dark and dusty, painted on the sky Misty taste of moonshine, teardrops in my eyes 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, West Virginia, mountain momma, oh momma Take me home, country roads Take me home, down country roads Take me home, down country roads
