Almost heaven, West Virginia
Blue Ridge Mountains
Shenandoah River -
Life is old there
Older than the trees
Younger than the mountains
Growin' like a breeze
Country Roads, take me home
To the place I belong
West Virginia, mountain momma
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
Teardrops in my eye [ Lyrics from: http://www.lyricsmode.com/lyrics/j/john_denver/take_me_home_country_roads.html ]
Country Roads, take me home
To the place I belong
West Virginia, mountain momma
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 momma
Take me home, country roads
Country Roads, take me home
To the place I belong
West Virginia, mountain momma
Take me home, country roads
Take me home, now country roads
Take me home, now country roads
Tis is the best song as the place am liv'in now is not the place i born in. I was born a naturely place wif mountains,rivers and roads tat are muddy when rains come,mill house... It reminds me so much! Does tis happens 2 u when u r far far away from a place and wan 2 go back v. Much?
I love this song!!! My teacher is a song writer and he always sings this song to the class. It always makes me feel like i want to cry. It such a good song.
This was my very first "favorite song", back when i was about 11 years old. I didn't know who jd would be, or that he would play a huge role in my musical life and career, i just simply loved this song. When i want to escape the pressures i face today, this is one of the songs i put on the cd player... The original version of the song that i remember hearing on an old am radio. It brings me back to a time when life was so much simpler.
