Me and Bobby McGee (Kris Kristofferson)

Lyrics

Busted flat in Baton Rouge waitin for a train
Was feelin near as faded as my jeans
Bobby flagged the diesel down just before it rained
Took us all the way to New Orleans

I took my harpoon out of my dirty red bandana
I was blowin sad while Bobby sang the blues
Them windshield wipers slappin time, holdin bobby's hand in mine
He sang every song that driver knew

Freedom's just another word for nothing left to do
Nothing ain't worth nothing, but it's free
Feelin good was easy, Lord, when Bobby sang the blues
Feelin good was good enough for me
Good enough for me and Bobby McGee

From the cole mines of Kentucky to the California sun
Bobby shared the secrets of my soul
Standin right beside me, Lord, everything I've done
Cause Bobby's body kept it from the cold

And somewhere near Salinas, Lord, I let her slip away
She was looking for that home, I hope she finds it
And I'd trade all my tomorrows for a single yesterday
Holdin Bobby's body next to me

Freedom's just another word for nothing left to lose
Nothing ain't worth nothing, but it's free
Feelin good was easy, Lord, when Bobby sang the blues
Feelin good was good enough for me
Good enough for me and Bobby McGee

La la...

Freedom's just another word for nothing left to lose
Nothing ain't worth nothing, but it's free
Feelin good was easy, Lord, when Bobby sang the blues
Feelin good was good enough for me
Good enough for me and Bobby McGee
