John Denver_Take Me Home, Country Roads

之前就一直找機會介紹這首歌

沒想到在星期五深夜的椰林大道上  耳邊就傳來了這首曲子

忍不住便跟著旁邊可愛"country roads"合聲一起唱了起來

雖然歌詞記不太熟  但哼著旋律仍是一番享受 :)

原來只知道它是首英文老歌

一查之下才知道它是由John Denver原唱

後來有不少人詮釋過  如木匠兄妹  小野麗莎等  版本也有些許不同

對這首歌印象特別深刻  是因為宮崎駿"心之谷"動畫

裡面將原曲做了些許的改編  加上樂器的合奏

讓人印象深刻

無論是輕快的原曲  或是動畫的合鳴

這首歌都讓我很喜歡  在這裡推薦給大家^^

                   Take Me Home, Country Roads

      Words & Music: Bill Danoff,Taffy Danoff,and John Denver

                   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 road, take me home

                   To the place I belong

                   West Virginia, mountain mamma

                   Take me home, country road

                   All my memories gathered round her

                   Miners lady, stranger to blue water

                   Dark and dusty, painted on the sky

                   Misty taste of moonshine, teardrop in my eye

                   Country road, take me home

                   To the place I belong

                   West Virginia, mountain mamma

                   Take me home, country road

                   I hear her voice in the morning hours she calls me

                   Radio reminds me of my home far away

                   driving down the road I get a feeling

                   that I should've been home yesterday (yesterday)

                   Country road, take me home

                   To the place I belong

                   West Virginia, mountain mamma

                   Take me home, country road

                   Country road, take me home

                   To the place I belong

                   West Virginia, mountain mamma

                   Take me home, country road

                   Take me home, country road

                   Take me home, country road
