Almost Great |
| Once I had my poems up on the schoolroom wall |
| My teacher told my parents that I had something special |
| Then she sent my essay to the Iowa Review |
| I didn’t win a prize but I got an honorable mention |
| Almost great, almost great |
| After I left college, dropped out after two years |
| I left for NY city for my musical career |
| I know it would have happened but the band they got real jobs |
| They all got married, moved back to Omaha |
| Almost great, almost great |
| If I worked a little harder |
| I could of been a starter |
| Almost great |
| Almost great, I hope it’s not too late |
| Guess I’ll give it one more try |
| Before I say goodbye |
| Almost great |
| (Everybody sings) Almost great |
