JOHN DENVER - Country Roads (Live) Lyrics

Artist: JOHN DENVER

Album: Miscellaneous

Genre: Country

  • Songwriters: William Danoff, John Denver, Taffy Nivert

Almost Heaven, West Virginia
Blue Ridge Mountains, Shenan Doah River
Life is old there, older than the trees
Younger than the mountains, blowing like a breeze

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

All my mem'ries, gathered 'round her
Minor'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 the 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, West Virginia, mountain mama, oh mama
Take me home, country roads

Take me home, that country roads
Take me home, that country roads
