Verse 1

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

Chorus

Country roads, take me home To the place I belong West Virginia, mountain mama Take me home, country roads

Verse 2

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

Chorus

Country roads, take me home To the place I belong West Virginia, mountain mama Take me home, country roads

Break

I hear her voice in the mornin' hour, she calls me The radio reminds me of my home far away Drivin' down the road, I get a feelin' That I should've been home yesterday, yesterday

Chorus

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, mountain mama Take me home, country roads
Take me home, (down) country roads Take me home, (down) country roads
