Take Me Home Country Roads的詞曲作者是約翰·丹佛。以下是歌曲的歌詞:
Goodbye, old friend, I'm off to leave you
Away up there on the ridge
And I ain't got much to bring
But these old worn-out shoes
Take me home, country roads
I hear her voice in the morning hours
The birds are singing a song
And it makes me feel that I must go
And I ain't got much to say
But these old worn-out shoes
Take me home, country roads
I hear her voice in the evenings hours
When the sun is sinking low
And it makes me feel that I must go
And I ain't got much to say
But these old worn-out shoes
Country roads, take me home, I'm tired and lonesome
I'm leaving here and going back home
And it's been a long, long time
Since I was there on the run
But these old worn-out shoes
Take me home, country roads
And there's a boy standing on the wire
In a dream that won't come true
The dream was everything that you had hoped for your life to be and so there you stay with nothing but an empty feeling of fear. But then a feeling of love washes over you, takes you back home, it is just another phase. The feelings so great and they bring you so close. Then the joy that comes over you as you make it home safe and sound, Take you home country roads.
So take me home, country roads. I'm tired and lonesome. I'm leaving here and going back home. It's been a long, long time since I was there on the run. But these old worn-out shoes. Take me home, country roads. Take me home now. Take me home now. Take me home now. Take me home now. Take me home now. Take me home now. Take me home now. Take me home now. Take me home now. Take me home now. Take me home now. Take me home now. Take me home now. Take me home now. Take me home country roads now!
