Take me home, country road　

John Denver



Almost heaven, west Virginia

Blue ridge mountains, Shenandoah River

Life is old there, 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 mamma

Take me home, country road



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



I hear her voice in the morning hours she calls me

Radio reminds me of my home far away

And driving down the road I get a feeling

That I should’ve been home yesterday
