Craig Morgan - Almost Home Lyrics

Send "Almost Home" ringtone to your cell

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

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
