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



Country roads, take me home

To the place i belong

West virginia, mountain momma

Take me home, country roads



All my memories gathered ¡®round her

Miner's lady, stranger to blue water

Dark and dusty, painted on the sky

Misty taste of moonshine

Teardrops in my eye



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' hour she calls me

The radio reminds me of 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, take me home

To the place i belong

West virginia, mountain momma

Take me home, country roads

Take me home, now country roads

Take me home, now country roads



Words and music by bill danoff, taffy nivert and john denver
