Maytals - Take Me Home, Country Roads lyrics

rate me

Almost heaven, West Jamaica<br />

True ridge mountains<br />

Shining Minko River<br />

All my friends there<br />

Older than those ridge<br />

Younger than the mountains<br />

Blowin' like a breeze<br />

<br />

Country roads take me home<br />

To the place I belong<br />

West Jamaica, my ol' momma<br />

Take me home country roads<br />

<br />

I heard her voice<br />

In the mornin' hour she calls me<br />

Said son you remind me of my home far away<br />

And drivin' down the road I feel a sickness, I sure did<br />

Oh yesterday, yesterday<br />

<br />

All my memories, oh, gathered 'round her<br />

My old lady stranger to blue water<br />

Dark and dusty painted on the sky<br />

Misty taste of moonshine<br />

Tears gone from my eyes<br />

<br />

Country roads take me home<br />

To the place I belong<br />

West Jamaica, my my momma<br />

Won't you take me go home country roads
