Joe Diffie - Almost Home lyrics



he had plastic bags wrapped around 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 spitting 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

Chorus:

i just crawled out of a cottonwood tree

i was runnin from some hunny bees

drip dryin in the summer breaze 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 youd just left me alone

cuase i was almost home

and he said i was just comin round the barn

bout the time you grabbed my arm

and i heard mama holler son hurry up

and 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 thats as close as ive been

Chorus:

yeah i jus climbed out of a cottonwood tree

i was runnin from some hunny bees

drip dryin in the summer breaze

after jumpin into calico creek

i was walkin down a old dirt

past a field of hay that had just been mowed

man i wish youd just left me alone

i was almost home

i said old man your gonna freeze to death let me drive you to the mission

he said boy if youd left me alone rite now id be fishin

Chorus:

i just climbed out of a cottonwood tree

i was runnin from some hunny bees

drip dryin in the summer breaze

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 youd just left me alone

man i wish youd just left me alone........i was almost home

i was almost home
