Almost heaven West Virginia
Blue Ridge Mountains, Shenandoah River
Life is older older than the trees
Younger than the mountain blowing like a breeze.

Country roads take me home
To the place I belong
West Virginia mountain mama
Take me home country roads.

All my mem'ries 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 mornin' as she calls me
The 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
To the place I belong
West Virginia mountain mama
Take me home country roads.

Take me home country roads
Country roads, country roads...
