I Came So Close To Losing My Home

Merle Haggard · A Portrait of Meryl Haggard [1969]

(Jimmie Davis - Ken Hunt)



I came close so close to failure

I came close to living alone

I know the kids still love me and their mama

But I came so close to losing my home.



I felt small enough to drown in each teardrop

But big enough to admit I was wrong

When I think of what I've done the cheer runs through me

'Cause I came so close to losing my home.



I felt small enough to drown in each teardrop

But big enough to admit I was wrong

When I think of what I've done the cheer runs through me

'Cause I came so close to losing my home.
