Almost heaven, West Virginia, 
Blue Ridge Mountains, Shenandoah River. 
Life is old there, older than the trees, 
younger than the mountains 
growin' like a breeze. 

Ref.) country roads, Take me home to the place I belong. 
West Virginia, Mountain momma, Country roads take me home 

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. 

Rit: country... Take me home, 

I hear her voice in the morning hour she calls me, 
the radio reminds me of my home far away 
and driving down the road I get a feeling 
that I should have been home yesterday, yesterday.
