Almost heaven, West-Virginia Blue Ridge mountain, Shanandoah River Life is old there, older than the trees Younger than the mountains, blowing like a breeze Country Roads take me home To the place where I belong West-Virginia, mountain mama Take me home, country roads All my mem'ries gather round her Modest lady, stranger to blue water Dark and dusty, painted on the sky Misty taste of moonshine, teardrop in my eye I hear her voice in the morninghour she calls me The radio reminds me of my home far away And driving down the road I get the feeling That I should be home yesterday, yesterday
