Take Me Home, Country Roads
by John Denver
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
(Chorus):
Country roads, take me home
To the place I belong
West Virginia, mountain mama
Take me home, my country roads
All my mem'ries, gather round her
Miner's lady, stranger to blue water
Dark and dusty painted on the skies
Misty taste of moonshine teardrop in my eyes
(Chorus)
I hear her voice in the morning hours she calls me
The radio reminds me of my home far away
And drivin' down the road I get a feeling
That I should have been home yesterday
Yesterday
(Chorus) repeat
