Almost heaven, West Virginia,
Blue Ridge Mountains, Shenandoah River
Life is old there, older than the trees,
Younger than the mountains, growin' like a breezeCountry roads, take me home
To the place I belong
West Virginia, mountain momma,
Take me home, country roadsAll 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 eyeCountry roads, take me home
To the place I belong
West Virginia, mountain momma,
Take me home, country roadsCountry roads, take me home
To the place I belong
West Virginia, mountain momma,
Take me home, country roadsI hear her voice, in the mornin' hour she calls me,
The radio reminds me of my home far away,
And drivin' down the road I get a feelin'
That I should have been home yesterday, yesterdayCountry roads, take me home
To the place I belong
West Virginia, mountain momma,
Take me home, country roadsCountry roads, take me home
To the place I belong
West Virginia, mountain momma,
Take me home, country roadsLa la la (hey, hey)
La la la (hey, hey)
La la la (hey, hey)
La la laWest Virginia, mountain momma,
Take me home, country roadsLa la la (hey, hey)
La la la (hey, hey)
La la la (hey, hey)
La la la
West Virginia, mountain momma,
Take me home, country roadsTake me home, country roads
Take me home, country roads
