John Denver\u00a0<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Almost heaven, West Virginia,<\/strong><\/span>
\nBlue Ridge Mountains, Shenandoah River.<\/strong><\/span>
\nLife is old there, older than the trees,<\/strong><\/span>
\nYounger than the mountains, growin’ like a breeze.<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

Country roads, take me home,<\/strong><\/span>
\nTo the place I belong:<\/strong><\/span>
\nWest Virginia, mountain momma,<\/strong><\/span>
\nTake me home, country roads.<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

All my mem’ries, gather ’round her,<\/strong><\/span>
\nMiner’s lady, stranger to blue water.<\/strong><\/span>
\nDark and dusty, painted on the sky,<\/strong><\/span>
\nMisty taste of moonshine, teardrop in my eye.<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

Country roads, take me home,<\/strong><\/span>
\nTo the place I belong:<\/strong><\/span>
\nWest Virginia, mountain momma,<\/strong><\/span>
\nTake me home, country roads.<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

I hear her voice, in the mornin’ hours she calls me,<\/strong><\/span>
\nThe radio reminds me of my home far away.<\/strong><\/span>
\nAnd drivin’ down the road,<\/strong><\/span>
\nI get a feelin’ that I should have been home yesterday,<\/strong><\/span>
\nyesterday.<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

Country roads, take me home,<\/strong><\/span>
\nTo the place I belong:<\/strong><\/span>
\nWest Virginia, mountain momma,<\/strong><\/span>
\nTake me home, country roads. x2<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

Take me home, country roads.<\/strong><\/span>
\nTake me home, down country roads.<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
