I'm hers, she's mine, wedding bells are gonna chime
Do wah diddy diddy dum diddy do
Do wah diddy diddy dum diddy do
Do wah diddy diddy dum diddy do
When I was a little bitty baby
My mama would rock me in the cradle
In them old cotton fields back home
It wasdown in Louisiana
Just about a mile from Texarkana
In them old cotton fields back home
Oh, when them cotton bolls get rotten
You can't pick very much cotton
In them old cotton fields back home
It was down in Louisiana
Just about a mile from Texarkana
In them old cotton fields back home
In them old cotton fields back home
Almost heaven, West Virginia
Blue Ridge Mountains, Shenandoah River
Life is old there, older than the trees
Younger than the mountains, growin' like a breeze
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 mornin' hour, she calls me
The radio reminds me of my home far away
Drivin' down the road, I get a feelin'
That I should've 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
La la la (Hey hey) la la la (Hey hey)
La la la (Hey hey) la la la
West Virginia, mountain mama
Take me home, country roads
La la la (Hey hey) la la la (Hey hey)
La la la (Hey hey) la la la
West Virginia, mountain mama
Take me home, country roads
Take me home, country roads
Take me home, country roads
