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

I hear her voice in the mornin' hours she calls me, 
The radio reminds me of my home far away 
And drivin' down the road I get a 
Feelin' that I should've 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, country roads
Take me home, country roads
