-------------------.......................
 Almost heaven,  West Jamaica,
 True Ridge Mountains, shining  down the river.
 All my friends there,  holding on those ridge,
 Younger than the mountain, blowin'  like a breeze.
 Country roads  take me home,  to the place  I belong.
 West Jamaica,  my ol' Mama  ma ma, take me home,  country roads.
 I heard her voice;  in the mornin'  hour she calls  me.
 Said; "son  you re-mind  me of my home  far away".
 Drivin' down the road,  I feel a sickness,  I sure did,
 Oh yes-terday,  yesterday.
 All my memories  all gather 'round her,
 Mama Lady, stranger  to the water.
 Dark and dusky painted  on the sky,
 Misty taste of moonshine, tears  gone from my eye.
 Country roads  take me home,  to the place  I belong.
 West Jamaica,  my ol' Mama  ma ma,
 Won't you let me go home,  country roads?
 Country roads  take me home,  to the place  I belong.
 West Jamaica,  my ol' Mama  ma ma, take me home,  country roads.
 Country roads  take me home,  to the place  I belong.
 West Jamaica,  my ol' Mama  ma ma, take me home,  country roads.
