Take Me Home, Country Roads
John Denver, Bill Danoff, and Taffy Nivert Danoff (1971)
Almost heaven West Virginia
Blue Ridge Mountains Shenandoah 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 I belong
West Virginia mountain momma
Take me home country roads
All my memories gather 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 a voice in the morning hours she calls me
The radio reminds me of my home far away
Driving down the road I get a feeling
That I should 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
