Country Road Songtext
von Me First and the Gimme Gimmes

Almost heaven, West Virginia
Blue Ridge Mountains, Shenandoah River
Life is old there, older than the trees
Younger than the mountains, blowin′ like a breeze

Country roads, take me home
To the place I belong
West Virginia, mountain mama
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


Country roads, take me home
To the place where I belong
West Virginia, mountain mama
Take me home, country roads

I hear her voice in the morning hour, she calls me
Radio reminds me of my home far away
Driving down the road, I get a feeling that I should've been home yesterday
Yesterday

Country roads, take me home
To the place where I belong
West Virginia, mountain mama
Take me home, country roads

Take me home, dear country roads
Take me home country roads, yeah
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Woo!
