Almost Home [In the Style of Craig Morgan [00:00:00]
He had plastic bags wrapped round his shoes[00:00:14]
He was covered with the evening news[00:00:17]
Had a pair of old wool socks on his hands[00:00:20]
The bank sign was flashing 5 below[00:00:26]
It was freezing rain and spitting snow[00:00:30]
He was curled up behind some garbage cans[00:00:33]
I was afraid that he was dead[00:00:40]
I gave him a gentle shake[00:00:42]
When he opened up his eyes[00:00:46]
I said old man are you okay[00:00:48]
He said i just climbed out of a cottonwood tree[00:00:53]
I was running from some honey bees[00:01:01]
Drip drying in the summer breeze[00:01:07]
After jumping into calico creek[00:01:13]
I was walking down an old dirt road[00:01:20]
Past a field of hay that had just been mowed[00:01:26]
Man i wish you'd just left me alone[00:01:32]
Cause i was almost home[00:01:39]
Then he said i was just coming round the barn[00:01:46]
About the time you grabbed my arm[00:01:51]
When i heard momma holler son hurry up[00:01:54]
I was close enough for my own nose[00:02:00]
To smell fresh cobbler on the stove[00:02:03]
And i saw daddy loadin up the truck[00:02:06]
Cane poles on the tailgate[00:02:13]
Bobbers blowing in the wind[00:02:15]
Since july of 55[00:02:18]
That's as close as i've been[00:02:22]
Yeah i just climbed out of a cottonwood tree[00:02:27]
I was running from some honey bees[00:02:34]
Drip drying in the summer breeze[00:02:40]
After jumping into calico creek[00:02:47]
I was walking down an old dirt road[00:02:53]
Past a field of hay that had just been mowed[00:02:59]
Man i wish you'd just left me alone[00:03:05]
I was almost home[00:03:12]
I said old man you're gonna freeze to death[00:03:17]
Let me drive you to the mission[00:03:20]
He said boy if you'd left me alone[00:03:23]
Right now i'd be fishing[00:03:26]
I just climbed out of a cottonwood tree[00:03:31]
I was running from some honey bees[00:03:37]
Drip drying in the summer breeze[00:03:43]
After jumping into calico creek[00:03:50]
I was walking down an old dirt road[00:03:56]
Past a field of hay that had just been mowed[00:04:02]

Cause i was almost home almost home[00:04:15]
