Almost Home 가사

He had plastic bags wrapped round his shoes He was covered with the evening news He had a pair of ol' wool socks on his hands The bank sign was flashing 5 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 ol' man are you ok?... he said... I just climed out of a cotton wood tree i was running from some honey bees drip drying in the summer breeze after jumping in the calacoe creek i was walking down an old dirt road passed a field of hay that had just been mowed man i wish you'd just left me alone cuz i was almost home and he said i had just coming round the barn bout time you grabbed my arm when i heard momma holla son hurry up i was close enough from my own nose to smell fresh cogger on the stove and i saw daddy loadin' up the truck game polls on the tail gate bobbers blowing in the wind Since July of '55 that's as close as I've been... (chorus) I said ol' man you're gonna freeze to death let me drive you to the mission he said.
