Country roads, take me home

To the place where I belong

West Virginia, mountain mama

Take me home, country roads

Almost heaven, West Virginia

Blue Ridge Mountains, Shenandoah River

Life is older there, older than the trees

Younger than the mountain

Blowing 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 memories gather round her

Minor's lady, stranger to blue water

Dark and dusty, blowing in the sky

Misty taste of moonshine

Teardrops in my eye

Country roads, take me home

To the place where I belong

West Virginia, mountain mama

Take me home, country roads

I hear her voice in the morning 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've been home yesterday, yesterday

Country roads, take me home

To the place where I belong

West Virginia, mountain mama

Take me home, country roads
