Couplet 1
Almost heaven , West Virginia
Blue Ridge Mountains , Shenandoah River
Life is old there, older than the trees
Younger than the mountains, growin' like a breeze

Refrain
Country Roads, take me home,
To the place, I belong,
West Virginia, mountain mama,
Take me home, country roads.

Couplet 2
All my memories gather round her, miner's lady, stranger to blue water.
Dark and dusty, painted on the sky, misty taste of moonshine,
Teardrop in my eye.

Refrain...

Couplet 3
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 have been home yesterday, yesterday.

Refrain...
