听歌学英语-Country Road Takes Me Home 乡村路，带我回家

英文歌词：
Almost Heaven, West Virginia
Blue Ridge¹ Mountains, Shenangoah River
Life is old there, older than the trees
Younger than the mountains
Growing 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, gathered round her
Miner's a lady, stranger to blue water
Dark and dusty, painted on the sky
Misty² taste the moonshine, teardrops 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 hours 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 now, Country Roads
Take me home now, Country Roads
