Me And Bobby McGee
Busted flat in Baton Rouge and heading for the train
Feeling nearly faded as my jeans
Bobby thumbed a diesel down just before it rained
Took us all the way to New Orleans
I took my harpoon out of my dirty red bandanna
Blowing sad while Bobby sang the blues
With them windshield wipers slapping time and Bobby clapping hands
We finally sang up every song that driver knew
Freedom's just another word for nothing left to lose
Nothing ain't worth nothing, but it's free
And feeling good was easy oh when Bobby sang the blues
Feeling good was good enough for me
Good enough for me and Bobby McGee
From the coal mines of Kentucky to the California sun
Bobby shared the secrets of my soul
Standing right beside me all through everything I've done
Every night she kept me from the cold
Then somewhere near Salinas
I let her slip away
Looking for the home I hope she found
But I'd trade all my tomorrows for a single yesterday
Holding Bobby's body close to mine
Freedom's just another word for nothing left to lose
Nothing left is all she left for me
Feeling good was easy oh when Bobby sang the blues
Feeling good was good enough for me
Good enough for me and Bobby McGee
(Alright sing it now)
