Craig Morgan Miscellaneous Almost Home 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 an 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 ok?" He said,"I just climbed out of a cottonwood tree" I was runin' 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 comin' round the barn" Bout the time he 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 When I saw daddy loadin' up the truck Cane poles on the tailgate, Bobbers blowin in the wind, Since July of '55 That's as close as I've been He said,"I just climbed out of a cottonwood tree" I was runin' 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 I said,"Old man you're gonna freeze to death" Let me drive you to a mission He said,"Boy if you left me alone Right now I'd be fishin' He said,"I just climbed out of a cottonwood tree" I was runin' 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 Cause I was almost home (Almost Home) Man I wish you'd just left me alone I wish almost home |
