Lyrics: Take Me Home Country Roads

(B. Donoff, T. Nivert, J. Denver)

Almost heaven, West Virginia
Blue Ridge Mountain, Shenandoah River
Life is old there, older than the tree
Younger than the mountains growing like a breeze
Country road's, take me home to the place I belong
West Virginia, mountain momma
Take me home, country roads.

All my memories gather 'round her
She's a miner's lady and stranger to blue water
Dark and dusty, painted on the sky
Misty taste of moonshine and teardrop in my eye
Country roads take me home to the place I belong
I said, West Virginia, mountain momma
Take me home, country roads.

I hear her voice in the morning hours she calls me
The radio reminds me of my home far away
And driving down the road I get a feeling that I should
have been home, yesterday
Yesterday.

Country roads, I said, take me home
I wanna go to the place where I belong
West Virginia, mountain momma
Take me home, country roads
Take me home...
