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
Miner's 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 hour,
she calls me
Radio reminds me
of a home far away
Driving down the road,
I get a feeling that I
Should have been home
yesterday, yesterday
Country roads,
take me home
To the place that
I belong
West Virginia,
mountain mama
Take me home,
country roads
Take me home,
down country roads
Take me home,
down country roads
