Leaving On a Jet Plane

 

這支“Take Me Home, Country Roads”
可以說是 John Denver 的成名曲，
雖然稍前的"Leaving on a Jet Plane"
已經樹立了他歌曲寫作者的名聲，
但是那支歌1970年在排名榜上奪冠之作，
卻是由Peter, Paul and Mary三人團演唱的。
一直到隔一年，John Denver 自己演唱的
這首“Take Me Home, Country Roads”
1971年在排行榜爬升至第二名，
此後，John Denver 的名歌連續出爐，
奠定了他在美國流行音樂與鄉村音樂樂壇上的地位。

John Denver - Take Me Home, Country Roads

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

All my memories gather round her
Miners 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 mornin hour, she calls me
The radio reminds me of my home far away
Drivin down the road, I get a feelin
That I shouldve 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
