It's "Take Me Home, Country Roads" by John Denver, about 1971.  Because of the lyrics, the song's strongly associated with the state of West Virginia. but Denver and co-writer Bill Danoff wrote the song in the waiting room of a New York hospital, and used the  name "West Virginia" just because it fit the meter of the song. John Denver had never even been in West Virginia until he played a charity concert in 1985.

Other songs by him?  You can find lots of places that list his hits, so I'll not bother. But of the obscure songs, how about "Wild Montana Skies"

Take me home By John Denver

Almost heaven, West Virginia,
Blue Ridge Mountains, Shenandoah River. 
Life is old there, older than the trees, 
younger than the mountains
growin' like a breeze. 
Country roads, take me home,
to the place I belong. 
West Virginia, 
Mountain momma, 
Take me home country roads
All my mem'ries, gather round her, 
miner's lady, stranger to blue water. 
Dark and dusty, painted on the sky, 
misty taste of moonshine
teardrop in my eye. 
Country roads, take me home, 
to the place I belong. 
West Virginia,
Mountain momma,
Take me home Country roads 
I hear her voice in the morning hour she calls me,
the radio reminds me of my home far away
and driving down the road I get a feeling
that I should have been home yesterday, 
yesterday. 
Country roads take me home, 
to the place I belong. 
West Virginia,
Mountain momma,
Take me home, Country roads
Country roads take me home, 
to the place I belong. 
West Virginia,
Mountain momma,
Take me home, Country roads
Take me home, Country roads
Take me home, Country roads
