Sångtext Israel Kamakawiwo'ole: Take Me Home Country Road

Take Me Home Country Road


Almost Heaven, West Makaha,
high-ridge mountain, crystal-clear blue water
All my friends there hanging on da beach,
young and old among them,
feel the ocean breeze

Country road, take me home,
to the place I belong,
West Makaha, Mount Ka'ala
Oh, take me home, oh, country road

I heard a voice,
in the morning calm, she calls me,
as though to remind me of my Home far away

Driving down the road,
I feel the Spirit coming to me,
from yesterday, yesterday

All my memories hold Heaven on high,
brown-skinned woman, clear blue island sky
Daytime sunshine, oo-ooh so bright,
midnight moon a-glowing, stars up in the sky

Country road, take me home,
to the place I belong,
West Makaha, Mount Ka'ala
Take me home, take me home, country road

I hear a voice, in the morning calm, she's calling,
as though to remind me of my Home far away
We driving down the road, I feel the Spirits coming to me,
of yesterday, yesterday

Almost Heaven, West Makaha,
high ridge mountain, crystal clear blue waters
All my friends there sitting on the beach,
young and old among them,
eating fish straight from the sea

Country road, take me home,
to the place I belong,
West Makaha, oh, Mount Ka'ala
Take me home, oh country road

Country road, take me home,
oh to the place I belong
West Makaha, Mount Ka'ala,
take me home, oh country road

Country road, oh take me home,
yes to the place, to the place, I belong,
West Makaha, Mount Ka'ala,
take me home country road

Country road, take me home,
to the place I was born,
West Makaha, Mount Ka'ala
Take me home, country road

Huuhuu Huuu-tah
Good fo' be back
White san', clean watah
H? boy, the mountainfeel the makani
whew, what a place
