Strophe 1

Almost heaven,
West virginia
Blue ridge mountains
Shenandoah river
Life is old there, older than the trees
Younger than the mountain, growing like a breeze

Refrain:

Country roads, take me home
To the place i do belong
West virginia mountain momma
Take me home country roads

Strophe 2

All my mem'ries gather round her
Minder's lady stranger to blue water
Dark and dusty painted on the sky
Misty taste of moonshine,
Tear drop in my eyes

Refrain:

I hear the voice in the mornin' hours she calls me
The radio reminds me of my home far away
And driving down the road i get a feelin'
That i should have been home yesterday
Yesterday

Refrain
