Almost Heave,West Virginia
Blue Ridge Mountains,Shenanndoah River
Life is old there,older than the trees
Yonger than the mountains,growing like a breeze
Country Roads,Take me home
To the place I belong
West Virginia,mountain momma
Take me home,Country Roads
All my mem'ries gather 'round her
Miner's Lady,stranger to blue water
Dark and dusty painted on the sky
Misty tastes of Moonshine,teardrop in my eyes
Country Roads,take me home
To the place I belong
West Virginia,Mountain momma
Take me home,country roads
I hear her voice in the mornin' hours she calls me
The radio reminds meof my home far away
And 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 momma
Take me home,country roads
Country Roads(country roads)
take me home(take me home)
To the place (to the place) I belong
West Virginia,Mountain momma
Take me home,country roads
Take me home,Down Country roads
Take me home,Down Country roads
Take me home,Down Country roads
