Country Road Songtext
von Toots & The Maytals

Mhm-mm, mhm-mm
God of Zion
Mhm-mm-mhmm-oh-oh, yeah
Listen

Almost heaven, West Jamaica
Through ridge mountains
Shining down the river
All my friends there holding on those ridge
Younger than the mountains
Blowin′ like a breeze

Country road take me home
To the place I belong
West Jamaica, my ol' momma
Take me home, country road
Yo wait a minute


I heard her voice
In the mornin′ as she calls me
She said, "Son you remind me of my home far away
And drivin' down the road I feel a sickness, I sure did"
Oh yesterday, yesterday

All my memories, all gathered 'round her
Mama let in a stranger through the water
Dark and dusty painted on the sky
Misty taste of moonshine
Tears gone from my eyes

Country road take me home
To the place I belong
West Jamaica, my-my momma
Won′t you take me go home, country road?
Oh, I like that me too

Hey man, can I get somebody sing?
Country road take me home
To the place, I belong
West Jamaica, my-my momma
Won′t you take me go home, country road?
Yo get the kids together


Country road take me home
To the place, I belong
West Jamaica, my-my momma
Won't you take me go home, country road?
Now sing it all

Country road take me home
To the place...
