Almost heaven, West Virginia
Blue Ridge mountain, shining in the gold river
Life is older, older than the trees
Younger than the mountains
Growing like a breeze
Country road, take me home
To the place I belong
West Virginia, mountain, Mama
Take me home, country road
All my memories gather around her
My old lady, stronger to blue waters
Dark and dusty painted on the sky
Misty tastes the moonshine
Teardrops in my eyes
Country road, take me home
To the place I belong
West Virginia, mountain, Mama
Take me home, country road
I hear her voice singing in the morning
when she calls me
The radio reminds me of my home far away
And driving down the road I get the feeling
that I should've been home yesterday
Yesterday ...
Country road, take me home
To the place I belong
West Virginia, mountain, Mama
Take me home, country road
