Almost heaven, West Virginia,
Blue Ridge Mountains, Shenandoah River.
Life is older here, older than the tress.
Younger than the mountains, blowing like a breeze.
(Chorus)
Country road, take me home
To the place, I belong
West Virginia , Mountain Mama
Take me home, country road.
All my memories gather round her,
Miners lady, stranger to blue water
Dark and dusty painted on the sky,
Misty taste of moonshine, teardrop in my eye.
(Chorus)
Country road, take me home
To the place, I belong
West Virginia , Mountain Mama
Take me home, country road.
Hear a voice in the morning, how she calls me
Radio reminds me of my home far away
Driving down the road I get the feeling
That I should have been home yesterday,
yesterday.
(Chorus)
Country road, take me home
To the place, I belong
West Virginia , Mountain Mama
Take me home, country road.
