"Take Me Home, Country Roads" lyrics

Take Me Home, Country Roads

Almost heaven
West Virginia
Blue Ridge Mountains
Shenandoah River
Life is old there
Older than the trees
Younger than the mountains
Blowing like the breeze

Country roads
Take me home
To the place
I belong
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
Teardrops in my eye

Country roads
Take me home
To the place
I belong
West Virginia
Mountain mama
Take me home
Country roads

I hear her voice
In the morning as she calls me
The radio reminds me
Of my home far away
Driving down the road
I get a feeling
That I should have been
Home yesterday
Yesterday

Country roads
Take me home
To the place
I belong
West Virginia
Mountain mama
Take me home
Country roads

La, da, da, da, da
In the morning as she calls me
La, da, da, da, da, da, da, da
Home far away mhm
