West By Golly Virginia

“Blue Ridge Mountains, Shenandoah River
Life is old there, older than the trees
Younger than the mountains,

“The old adage says that it’s better to be lucky than good. Apparently having the right network is better than both.” -J.D. Vance

blowing like a breeze Country roads, take me home
To the place I belong
West Virginia, mountain mama
Take me home, country roads

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 roads, take me home
To the place I belong
West Virginia, mountain mama

Take me home, country roads I hear her voice, in the morning hour 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 roads Country roads, take me home
To the place I belong
West Virginia, mountain mama
Take me home, country roads Take me home, down country roads
Take me home, down country roads”

“Families are like fudge – mostly sweet with a few nuts.” 😉

I hear her voice, in the morning hour 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 roads Country roads, take me home
To the place I belong
West Virginia, mountain mama
Take me home, country roads Take me home, down country roads
Take me home, down country roads”
