[00:03.20]
[00:36.29]Almost home
[00:37.54]And I miss the bottom stair
[00:39.73]
[00:41.28]You were braiding your grey hair
[00:43.29]
[00:45.35]And it's grown so long
[00:46.92]
[00:47.68]Since I've been gone
[00:48.80]
[00:53.21]Now the perfect girls
[00:54.83]By the pool, they would protest
[00:56.51]
[00:57.70]With crosses 'round their necks
[00:59.31]
[01:02.60]But our sons were overseas
[01:03.72]And we all know about the hive and the honey bees.
[01:08.02]
[01:26.10]Almost home
[01:26.54]With an olive branch and a dove
[01:31.70]You were beating on a persian rug
[01:33.63]
[01:34.19]With your Bible and your wedding band
[01:36.07]
[01:38.24]Both hidden on the TV stand.
[01:39.80]
[01:40.87]And the cruel wind blew
[01:42.23]
[01:45.83]Every city father fell
[01:47.70]Off the county carousel
[01:49.01]
[01:51.84]While the dogs were eating snow
[01:53.65]
[01:54.34]All our sons had sunk in trunka
[01:57.42]
[01:58.99]Of no one's clothes
[02:02.11]
[02:03.18]Almost home
[02:05.93]
[02:15.32]We got lost on our new street
[02:17.61]While your grieving girls all died in their sleep
[02:19.99]So the dogs all went unfed
[02:21.56]A great dream of bones all piled on a bed
[02:24.05]And the cops couldn't care
[02:25.12]When that crackhead built a boat
[02:26.30]And said, please, before I go
[02:27.50]May your only honor bought
[02:28.49]Be the kinship of the kids in the riot squad.
