Take The Long Way Home

Allmost heaven, West Virginia
Blue Ridge Mountains, Shanandoah 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 Road

All my memories gather 'round her
Miner's lady, strangers to blue water
Dark and dusty, painted on the sky
Misty taste of moonshine
Tear drops in my eye

Country Roads, take me home
To the place I belong
West Virginia Mountain mama
Take me home Country Road

I hear her voice in the morning
How 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

Country Roads, take me home
To the place I belong
West Virginia Mountain mama
Take me home Country Road
Take me home Country Road
