Song Lyrics
Almost heaven,
West Virginia
Blue ridge mountain,
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 mamma,
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 ... Country roads
I hear her voice in the morning hour she calls me
Radio reminds me of my home far away...
Driving down the road I get a feeling
That I should have been home yesterday... yesterday...
Country roads, Take me home ... Country roads
Country roads, Take me home ... Country roads
Take me home, country roads
Take me home, country roads
Personal Reflection
It reminds me of my sweet little home, family and friends...
It reminds me of my sweet little home, family and friends...
