Lyrics:
[Verse 1]
Almost Heaven, West Virginia
Blue Ridge Mountains, Shenandoah River
Life is old there, older than the trees
Younger than the mountains, growing like a breeze
[Chorus]
Country roads, take me home
To the place I belong
West Virginia, mountain mama
Take me home, country roads
[Verse 2]
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
[Chorus]
Country roads, take me home
To the place I belong
West Virginia, mountain mama
Take me home, country roads
[Bridge]
I hear her voice in the morning hour, she calls me
The radio reminds me of my home far away
Driving down the road, I get a feeling
That I should have been home yesterday, yesterday
[Chorus]
Country roads, take me home
To the place I belong
West Virginia, mountain mama
Take me home, country roads
Country roads, take me home
To the place I belong
West Virginia, mountain mama
Take me home, country roads
[Outro]
Take me home, (Down) country roads
Take me home, (Down) country roads

Always brings tears to my eyes. My Mother's family was from Clarksburg W VA and they were the most family centered and loving people you could ever know. Italian Americans who were so country. Love all around. I was just a little guy but that love still is still with me to this day. They're all gone but they'll always have a place in heart forever. Fishing trips to the river with my Uncle, nights at Rosie's deli with the WHOLE family, like 40 people, kids running around and so much food. I was so lucky and blessed. So very fortunate. And so, so grateful.

I was just in Harper's Ferry WV on vacation. There is a pub and grill called Almost Heaven there and you're surrounded by the Blue Ridge Mountains and the Shenandoah River converges with the Potomac River. The town embodies this song perfectly. It felt like home to me, I didn't want to leave. I've been there several times. First time I spent a few days there. Usually I took day trips. I highly recommend a trip there.

John Denver: fabulous musician, hilarious comedian, a great actor (“Oh God!”) who always played himself, and a genuine friend among friends, just like you’d think. He was a unicorn and there was nobody like him. He probably wouldn’t mind his own lyrics being incorrectly posted in this audio file, either, as they are here, but they are “Mountain Palmer”, not mountain mama.

This song makes me think of my roommate in college. He was from Osk Hill, West Virginia. Often we’d drive three hours to hang out with his family and friends back in West Virginia. Good memories. However, my best memory is when this good ole’ West Virginia boy led me to the Lord. This Baptist boy shared the gospel of the Lord Jesus Christ wherever he went. When I surrendered my life to Christ, it changed everything. I’ll forever be grateful for this dear friend from West Virginia. Though flawed, I am blessed to travel throughout the United States preaching the life changing power of the gospel. For many reading this, to come home is to surrender your life to the Lord Jesus Christ.
