Country roads, take me home
To a backwoods creek down a long dirt road
If it means an old headstoneAt least I′ll be, I'll be where I belong
I represent the country
Yeah, I love the slums
Raised off in the sticks
Man this is where I come from
Love cracklin′ cornbread
Collard and corn fed
Southern by the grace of God
And when I'm gone, country dead
I ride the dirt roads
Sometimes to reach that destination
Ducked off in Jones Woods
It's like I′m always on vacation
Blaze up the bonfire
Callin′ up my country folk
Just filled up that mason jar
Lite the pine and take a smoke
It's all good, we all fine
Big Marcus brought the moonshine
Kid Rock in the dashboard
Peaches shakin′ in the moonlight
Somethin' ′bout them backroads
Stretchin' out across the county line
It takes me back to my days of young
When my grandma was my sunshine
I love all the things that the country brings
Backroads ridin′ little country lane
On a front porch with my girl and kids
'Cause the smell of an evenin' country rain
May not mean that much to some
But to me, it′s where my heart belongs
I′m callin' on them country roads
Them the ones that take me home
Country roads, (country road) take me home (take me home)
To a backwoods creek (to a back wood creek)
Down a long dirt road (sideways down an old dirt road)
If it means an old headstone
At least I′ll be, I'll be where I belong
Them country roads mean a lot to me
Georgia mountains, Carolina′s Cherokee
Smokey Mountains in the hills of Tennessee
If you like me you probably agree
It's like something good
Like something sweet
Like something green
Like mamma′s tea
Raised to be how I wanted to be
At the end of the road, the sunset is for free
Not tryin' to put down the city
But these country roads sure are pretty
Times I feel so young for what I know
Damn, there's no place like home
I like to hear some creek I′m flowing
Down that′s some road I'm goin′
Hell yeah, that's where I belong
While we getting there we all sing along
Country roads, (country road) take me home (take me home)
To a backwoods creek (to a back wood creek)
Down a long dirt road (sideways down an old dirt road)
If it means an old headstone
At least I′ll be, I'll be where I belong
Country roads (country roads take me home)
To a backwoods creek (sideways down an old dirt road)
If it means an old headstone
At least I′ll be, I'll be where I belong
