Lyrics: john denver
West Virginia is almost heaven.
West Virginia is always like heaven.
Shenandoah River, Blue Ridge Mountains
There are the Blue Ridge Mountains and Shenandoah River.
Life there is older than trees.
Life there outlives trees.
Younger than a mountain
As young as a mountain.
Grow like a breeze
Drift away like a breeze
Country roads take me home.
My hometown road, take me home.
Go where I belong.
Go back to my long-awaited destination
West Virginia
West Virginia (WV)
Mountain mother
Dashan mama
Country road, take me home.
Take me home, the way home.
All my memories are gathered around her.
All my memories revolve around her.
Ms. Miner is a stranger to blue water.
She is the wife of a miner and has never seen the deep sea.
Dark and dusty sky
Darkness and dust color the sky.
The hazy taste of moonlight
In the dim moonlight
Tears fell in my eyes.
Tears filled my eyes.
Country roads take me home.
My hometown road, take me home.
Go where I belong.
Go back to my long-awaited destination
West Virginia
West Virginia (WV)
Mountain mother
Dashan mama
Country road, take me home.
Take me home, the way home.
I heard her voice and she called me in the morning.
I heard a voice calling me in the morning.
The radio reminds me of my home far away.
The voice on the radio reminds me of my distant home.
Driving along the road, I have a feeling
Driving on the highway, I have this feeling in my heart.
I should be at home.
Maybe I should have gone home yesterday.
yesterday
Just yesterday
yesterday
Just yesterday
Country roads take me home.
My hometown road, take me home.
Go where I belong.
Go back to my long-awaited destination
West Virginia
West Virginia (WV)
Mountain mother
Dashan mama
Country road, take me home.
Take me home, the way home.
Country roads take me home.
My hometown road, take me home.
Go where I belong.
Go back to my long-awaited destination

Mountain mother

Country road, take me home.
Take me home, the way home.
Country road, take me home.
Take me home, the way home.
Country road, take me home.
Take me home, the way home.
