Current song lyrics
He had plastic bags wrapped round his shoes.<br />He was covered with the evening news.<br />Had a pair of old wool socks on his hands.<br /><br />The bank sign was flashing '5 below,<br />It was freezing rain an' spittin' snow.<br />He was curled up behind some garbage cans.<br />I was afraid that he was dead.<br />I gave him a gentle shake.<br />When he opened up his eyes<br />I said, "Old man are you ok?"<br /><br />He said, "I just climbed out of a cottonwood tree,<br />I was runin' from some honey bees.<br />Drip dryin' in the summer breeze,<br />After jumpin' into Calico creek.<br />I was walkin' down an old dirt road,<br />Past a field of hay that had just been mowed.<br />Man I wish you'd just left me alone,<br />'Cause I was almost home."<br /><br />Then he said, "I's just comin' 'round the barn<br />Bout the time you grabbed my arm,<br />When I heard Momma holler 'son hurry up.'<br />I was close enough for my own nose<br />To smell fresh cobbler on the stove<br />And I saw daddy loadin' up the truck<br />Cane poles on the tailgate<br />Bobbers blowin' in the wind<br />Since July of '55<br />That's as close as I've been."<br /><br />"Yeah, I just climbed out of a cottonwood tree.<br />I was runin' from some honey bees.<br />Drip dryin' in the summer breeze,<br />After jumpin' into Calico creek.<br />I was walkin' down an old dirt road,<br />Past a field of hay that had just been mowed.<br />Man I wish you'd just left me alone,<br />I was almost home."<br /><br />I said, "Old man you're gonna freeze to death.<br />Let me drive you to the mission."<br />He said, "Boy if you'd left me alone<br />Right now I'd be fishin'"<br /><br />"I just climbed out of a cottonwood tree.<br />I was runin' from some honey bees.<br />Drip dryin' in the summer breeze,<br />After jumpin' into Calico creek.<br />I was walkin' down an old dirt road,<br />Past a field of hay that had just been mowed.<br />Man I wish you'd just left me alone<br />'Cause I was almost home."<br /><br />(Almost Home)<br /><br />"Man I wish you'd just left me alone, I was almost home."
