It couldn't have been easy
When your life changed that day
And dad walked away
I caged you, I could hear you cry
But with you I always felt safe
You were so brave
And mother, after all these years
I never told you how much you mean to me
After all you gave me, the times you saved me
I'll finally keep my promise
And I'll sing you your favorite song
Oh, country road, take me home
To the place I belong
North Carolina, mountain mama
Take me home, oh, country road
Country roads, take me home where I belong
Sunday morning, mama singing those gospel songs
I reminisce about the smile that you always had
Even when times were bad with you and dad
Your faith is what got you through
Even when the five of us were stressing you
In my life, no doubt, you were a blessing, true
I wish those country roads could take me home back to you
I miss you
And mother, after all these years
I never told you how much you mean to me
After all you gave me, the times you saved me
I'll finally keep my promise
And I'll sing you your favorite song
Oh, country road, oh, take me home
To the place I belong
North Carolina, oh, mountain mama
Take me home, oh, country road
It's been ten long years
Since we spoke to one another
I pretend it doesn't bother me
To have lost a sister and a mother
Oh, country road, take me home
To the place I belong
North Carolina, mountain mama
Take me home
Oh, country road, oh, take me home
To the place I belong
North Carolina, oh, mountain mama
Take me home, oh, country road
Oh, country road, take me home
To the place I belong
North Carolina, mountain mama
Take me home, oh, country road
Oh, my country road
