Country Roads – Wallerawang Style

Verse 1 Almost heaven, that’s Wallerawang Blue Ridge Mountains, Cox’s River

Life is old there, older than the trees Younger than the mountains, blowing like the breeze

Chorus

Country roads take me home To the place I belong

Wallerawang in the valley Take me home, country roads

Verse 2

All my memories gather round her Miner’s lady, stranger to blue water Dark and dusty, painted on the sky

Place of wood and water, teardrop in my eye

Chorus Country roads take me home

To the place I belong Wallerawang in the valley

Take me home, country roads

Bridge The school bell rings and it always seems to call me, Snuggled in the vale where the miners work away

And driving down the road I get a feeling That I should’ve been home yesterday, yesterday

Chorus

Country roads take me home To the place I belong

Wallerawang in the valley Take me home, country roads Country roads take me home

To the place I belong Wallerawang in the valley

Take me home, country roads Take me home, down country roads Take me home, down country roads
