Almost Home (2020 - Remaster) Lyrics by Craig Morgan
God, Family, Country (Deluxe Edition)
2020
[Verse 1] 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 flashin' five below It was freezing rain and spittin' snow He was curled up behind some garbage cans [Pre-Chorus 1] 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?" [Chorus] 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" [Verse 2] Then he said, "I's just comin' 'round the barn 'Bout the time you grabbed my arm When I heard mama holler, "Son, hurry up" I was close enough for my old nose To smell fresh cobbler on the stove And I saw daddy loadin' up the truck [Pre-Chorus 2] Cane poles on the tailgate, bobbers blowin' in the wind Since July of '55, that's as close as I've been" [Chorus] "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" [Bridge] I said, "Old man, you're gonna freeze to death Let me drive you to the mission" He said, "Boy, if you'd've left me alone Right now I'd be fishin'" [Chorus] "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" (Almost home) "Man, I wish you'd just left me alone I was almost home"
