Almost heaven, West Virginia
Blue Ridge Mountains,
Shenandoah River
Life is older, older than the tree
Younger than the mansions
growing like a breeze
Take me home, country roads
To the place where I belong
West Virginia, mountain mama
Take me home, country roads
All my memories I gather round her
Minus ladies changing to the water
It's dark and dusty, I paint it on the sky
Misty days took moonshine,
teardrops in my eye
Take me home, country roads,
to the place where I belong,
West Virginia
My mama, 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 drivin' down that
road I get a feelin'
That I should've been home
yesterday
Yesterday
All my memories, I gather round her
Minus Lady, it's strange to do her harder
It's dark and dusty, painted on the sky
Miss the taste of moonshine,
a cheer or a smile
Take me home, country road
To the place right below
West Virginia, mountain mama
Oh, take me home, country road
Oh, take it home, don't count your rolls
Oh, take it home, don't count your rolls
