THERES A THOUSAND MEMORIES, THAT ARE NOW, IN REAL ESTATE HANDS

Take Me Home Country Roads
Daryle Singletary

Almost heaven, West Virginia
Blue Ridge Mountains, Shenandoah River
Life is old there, older than the trees
Younger than the mountains, blowing like a breeze

Country road, take me home
To the place, I belong
West Virginia, mountain momma
Take me home country road

All my memories gather round her
Miner’s lady, stranger to blue water
Dark and dusty, painted on the sky
Misty taste of moonshine, teardrop in my eye

Country road, take me home
To the place, I belong
West Virginia, mountain momma
Take me home country road

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 the feeling
That I should have been home yesterday, yesterday

Country road, take me home
To the place, I belong
West Virginia, mountain momma
Take me home country road

Take me home, down country roads
Take me home, down country roads
