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, teardrop in my eyes
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
I hear her voice in the mornin’ hours she calls me,
The radio reminds me of my home far away
