Almost heaven, West Virginia
Blue rich mountains, Shenandoah River
Life is old there, older than the trees,
Younger than the mountains, growing like a breeze

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

All my mem'ries gather 'round her,
Miner's lady stranger to blue waters
Dark and dusty painted on the sky,
Misty taste of moonshine, teardrops in my eye

Country roads, take me

I hear her voice, in the mornin' hour 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, take me
