Almost heaven, West Virginia
Blue Ridge Mountain, Shenandoah River
Life is old there, older than the trees
Younger than the mountain, blowing 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 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 road, take me home
To the place I belong
West Virginia, mountain mama
Take me home, country road
I hear her voice, in the morning hour she calls me
The radio reminds me of my home far away
And traveling down the road I get a feeling
That I should have been home yesterday, yesterday
Country road, take me home
To the place I belong
West Virginia, mountain mama
Take me home, country road
Take me home, country road
Country road, take me home
To the place I belong
West Virginia, mountain mama
Take me home, country road
Take me home, country road
