Almost Home by Craig Morgan
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 %26quot;5 below
It was freezing rain an spittin%26#039; 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,%26quot;Old man are you ok?%26quot;
He said,%26quot;I just climbed out of a cottonwood tree%26quot;
I was runin%26#039; from some honey bees
Drip dryin%26#039; in the summer breeze
After jumpin%26#039; into Calico creek
I was walkin%26#039; down an old dirt road
Past a field of hay that had just been mowed
Man I wish you%26#039;d just left me alone
%26#039;Cause I was almost home
Then he said,%26quot;I was comin%26#039; round the barn%26quot;
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%26#039; up the truck
Cane poles on the tailgate,
Bobbers blowin in the wind,
Since July of %26#039;55
That%26#039;s as close as I%26#039;ve been

%26#039;Cause I was almost home
I said,%26quot;Old man you%26#039;re gonna freeze to death%26quot;
Let me drive you to a mission
He said,%26quot;Boy if you left me alone
Right now I%26#039;d be fishin%26#039;

%26#039;Cause I was almost home
Man I wish you%26#039;d just left me alone
Cause I was almost home (Almost Home)
Man I wish you%26#039;d just left me alone
I wish almost home
