Almost heaven, West Virginia, Blue Ridge Mountain, Shenandoah River

Life is old there, older than the trees

Younger than the mountains, growing like a breeze

All my memories gather round her, miner s lady stranger to blue water

Dark and dusty painted on the sky

Misty taste of moonshine tear drop 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 morning hours she calls me

The radio reminds me of my home far away

And driving down the road I get a feeling that I should have been home yesterday, yesterday
