Chorus

 Country roads, take me home, to the place I belong

 West Virginia, mountain mama, take me home country roads

Verse

Almost heaven, West Virginia,

Blue Ridge Mountains, Shedonoah 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 mama, take me home country roads

All my memories gather 'round her,

miners lady, stranger to Blue Water

Dark and dusty, painted on the sky

Misty taste of moonshine, teardrop 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 morning, how she calls me

 The radio reminds me of my home far away

 And driving down the road I get a feeling

 That I should've been home yesterday, yesterday

 Country roads, take me home, to the place I belong

 West Virginia, mountain mama, take me home country roads

 Country roads, take me home, to the place I belong

 West Virginia, mountain mama, take me home country roads

 Take me home country roads, take me home country roads
