"Take Me Home, Country Road" Lyrics

(John Denver - Bill Danoff - Taffy Nivert)

Almost heaven, West Virginia
Blue Ridge Mountains, Shenandoah River
Life is old there, older than the trees
Younger than the mountains blowin' like the breeze
Country roads take me home to the place I belong
West Virginia mountain mama, take me home country roads.

All my mem'ries gather 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 mama, take me home country roads.

I hear her voice in the mornin' as she calls me
The radio reminds me of my home far away
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 mama, take me home country roads.

La da da da da in the mornin' as she calls me
La da da da da da da da home far away mhm...
