Almost Home
Lyricist:Craig Morgan, Kerry Kurt Phillips
He had plastic bags wrapped 'round his shoes He was covered with the evening news Had a pair of old wool socks on his hands
The bank sign was flashing 5 below It was freezing rain and spittin' snow He was curled up behind some garbage cans
I was afraid that he was dead I gave him a gentle shake When he opened up his eyes I said, 'Old man are you okay?'
He said, 'I just climbed out of a cottonwood tree I was runnin' from some honey bees Drip dryin' in the summer breeze After jumpin' into Calico creek
I was walkin' down an old dirt road Past a field of hay that had just been mowed Man, I wish you'd just left me alone 'Cause I was almost home'
Then he said, 'I was just comin' 'round the barn 'Bout the time you grabbed my arm When I heard Momma holler, 'Son, hurry up'
I was close enough for my own nose To smell fresh cobbler on the stove And I saw daddy loadin' up the truck
Cane poles on the tailgate Find more lyrics at ※ Mojim.com Bobbers blowin' in the wind Since July of '55 That's as close as I've been'
Yeah, I just climbed out of a cottonwood tree I was runnin' from some honey bees Drip dryin' in the summer breeze After jumpin' into Calico creek
I was walkin' down an old dirt road Past a field of hay that had just been mowed Man, I wish you'd just left me alone I was almost home
I said, 'Old man, you're gonna freeze to death Let me drive you to the mission' He said, 'Boy, if you'd left me alone Right now I'd be fishin''
I just climbed out of a cottonwood tree I was runnin' from some honey bees Drip dryin' in the summer breeze After jumpin' into Calico creek
I was walkin' down an old dirt road Past a field of hay that had just been mowed Man, I wish you'd just left me alone 'Cause I was almost home
Man, I wish you'd just left me alone I was almost home
