Country Roads

Hermes House Band

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 roads, take me home to the place I belong; /  West Virginia, Mountain Mama.
Take me home, country roads.

 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 roads, take me home to the place I belong; /  West Virginia, Mountain Mama.

Take me home, country roads.
I 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, yesterday.
Country roads, take me home to the place I belong;/  West Virginia, Mountain Mama.
Take me home, country roads./  Country roads, take me home to the place I belong;
West Virginia, Mountain Mama. /  Take me home, country roads.
Take me home,  (down) country roads. /  Take me home,  (down) country roads.
