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.
 [bad word] Country roads take me home
To the place I belong:
West Virginia mountain momma
Take me home country roads.

All my memories gathered 'round her
Miner's lady stranger to blue water.
Dark and dusty painted on the sky,
Misty taste of moonshine,
Teardrop in my eye.
 [bad word] Country roads, take me home
To the place I belong:
West Virginia, mountain momma,
Take me home, country roads.

I hear her voice, in the mornin' hour she calls me,
Radio reminds me of my home far away
And driving down the road I get a feeling
I should have been home yesterday, yesterday
 [bad word] Country roads, take me home
To the place I belong:
West Virginia, mountain momma,
Take me home, country roads.
