Almost heaven, West Virginia
Blue Ridge Mountain, Shenandoah Ri-iver
Life is old there
Older than the trees
Younger than the mountains
Blowin' like a breeze

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

All my mem'ries gather 'round her
Miner's lady, stranger to blue wa-ater
Dark and dusty, painted on the sky
Mist that tastes like moonshine
Teardrop in my eye

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

I hear her voice, in the mornin' hour she ca-alls me
Radio reminds me of my home far away
Drivin' down the road I get a feelin' that
I should have been home yesterday, yesterday

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