Almost heaven, West Virginia
Blue Ridge Mountain, Shenandoah River
Life is old there, older than the tree
Younger than the mountains growing like a breeze
Country road's, take me home to the place I belong
West Virginia, mountain momma
Take me home, country roads.

All my memories gather 'round her
She's a miner's lady and stranger to blue water
Dark and dusty, painted on the sky
Misty taste of moonshine and teardrop in my eye
Country roads take me home to the place I belong
I said, West Virginia, mountain momma
Take me home, country roads.

I hear her voice in the morning hours 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, I said, take me home
I wanna go to the place where I belong
West Virginia, mountain momma
Take me home, country roads
Take me home
