When you get down remember this song

Post by dallas »

Are you ready to party
Here we go

Almost heaven West Virginia
Blue Ridge Mountains Shenandoah river
Life is old there older than the trees
Younger than the mountains blowin' like a breeze

Country roads take me home
To the place I belong
West Virginia mountain momma
Take me home country roads

All my memories gather round her
Miner's lady stranger to blue water
Dark and dusty painted on the sky
Misty taste of moonshine teardrops in my eyes

Country roads take me home
To the place I belong
West Virginia mountain momma
Take me home country roads

I hear a voice in the morning how she calls me
The radio reminds me of my home far away
Drivin' down the road I get the feelin'
That I should been home yesterday yesterday

(Here we go)
Country roads take me home
(Take me home)
To the place I belong
(Let me hear you sing)
West Virginia mountain momma
Take me home country roads
(Here we go here we go)

Country roads take me home
To the place I belong
West Virginia mountain momma
Take me home country roads

La la la hey hey
La la la hey hey
La la la hey hey
La la la
West Virginia mountain momma
Take me home country roads

La la la hey hey
La la la hey hey
La la la hey hey
La la la
West Virginia mountain momma
Take me home country roads

Take me home country roads
Take me home country roads
(I'm coming home...)

Now lets wiganize it

Don't you mean "wiganiSe", Wigan isn't in West Virginia, no matter what the song says!

Sorry, one of my pet hates is the fact that Americanz can't spell properly, especially if I'm drinking beer out of an alumunum, erm, aluminium can...

Well if they're going for the American theme then Wiganize is the term they're after isn't it?

I have that aluminum problem when trying to write aluminium on MS Word (control the rant about MS! hehe). Same with words like optimise/optimize. Grrrr! I change the dictionary and it changes straight back without even so much as a magical paperclip telling me so!

Because of the project I'm involved with, most of our documents are now set to use the Aussie dictionary instead of the US or UK ones. It's most disconcerting to read minutes of meetings that all begin "G'day mates..." :D
