Discover the story of the song > Take Me Home Country Road – Israel Kamakawiwo’ole

The protagonist sings about missing his home country road in West Makaha, where he grew up surrounded by mountains, clear blue water and memories of his friends and family. He hears a voice in the morning that reminds him of his home far away, and as he drives down the road, he feels the spirit of yesterday. He longs to go back to his almost heaven, where he can see the brown-skinned women, clear blue skies and enjoy the daytime sunshine and midnight moon.
