Take Me Home, Country Roads


I was listening to the country music on yahoo a little while ago and it played one of my favorite one, Take Me Home, Country Road. It made me homesick, I miss our home in West Virginia and my family and friends there. We're missing you guys so much! We can't wait till we come back there again next year!

Here's the lyric:
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
Miners lady, stranger to blue water
Dark and dusty, painted on the sky
Misty taste of moonshine
Teardrops in my eye
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
