Almost heaven, West Virginia, 
Blue Ridge Mountains, Shenandoah River 
Life is old there, older than the trees 
Younger than the mountains, growing 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... 

I hear a voice in the morning, how she calls me 
Radio reminds me of my home far away 
Driving down the road I get the feeling 
that I should have been home yesterday, yesterday 

Country roads...
