"Take Me Home, Country Roads" lyrics
"Take Me Home, Country Roads"
(originally by John Denver)
Listen here (Go 'head)
Almost heaven, West Virginia
Blue Ridge Mountains, Shenandoah River
Life is old there, older than the trees
Younger than the mountains
Growing like a breeze
Country roads, take me home to the place I belong
West Virginia, mountain mama, take me home, country roads
Now wait a minute
I hear her voice in the morning hour she calls me (Calls me)
The radio reminds me of my home far away (Home sweet home)
And driving down the road I get a feeling
That I should have been home yesterday, yesterday
(Now, hold on, you got it)
All my memories, gather round her
Miner's lady, stranger to blue water
Dark and dusty, painted on the sky
Misty taste of moonshine
Teardrop from my eye
Country roads, take me home to the place I belong
West Virginia, mountain mama, take me home, country roads
(Ah, I like that) Me, too
(Hey man, you gon' give me some of this thing again?) You know it
(Well, let me hear ya) Right on
Country roads, why don't you take me home to the place I belong
Oh, West Virginia, mountain mama, take me home, country roads
(Now put your hands together)
Country roads, take me home to the place I belong
Hey, hey, West Virginia, mountain mama, take me home, country roads
(Let's do it again, y'all)
Country roads, take me home to the place I belong
West Virginia, mountain mama, please take me home, country roads
(That's alright, y'all)

Sarah Vaughan - "Come Rain Or Come Shine" I'm gonna love you
Like no one's loved you
Come rain or come shine
High as a mountain

It was just one of those things
But don't ever...

If that diamond ring don't shine
He gonna take it to a private eye
If that private eye can't see
He better not take the ring from me

Nina Simone - "Do I Move You?" Do I move you, are you willin'
Do I groove you, is it thrillin'

Do I move you, are you loose now
The answer better be (Yes, yes)
That pleases me
Are you ready for...
Howlin' Wolf - "Spoonful" It could be a spoonful of diamonds
Could be a spoonful of gold
Just a little spoon of your precious love
Satisfy my soul
Men lied about a little
Some of them cried about little
Some of them died...
