Title: Me And Bobby Mcgee

Lyrics Me And Bobby Mcgee

Busted flat in Baton Rouge waitin' for the trains feelin' bout as faded as my jeans
Bobby flagged a diesel down just before it rained took us all the way to New Orleans
Then I pulled my har'poon out of my dirty red bandana
And was blowin' sad while Bobby sang the blues
With the windshield whipers slappin' time and Bobby clappin' hands we finally
Sang up ever song that driver knew

Freedom's just another word for nothin' left to lose
Nothin' ain't worth nothin' but it's free
Feeling good was easy while 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
Standin' right beside me Lord through everything I done
And every night she'd kerp me from the cold
And then one day near Salinas I let her slip away
Looking for the home I hope she'll find
And I'd trade all of my tomorrows for one single yesterday
Holdin' Bobby's body close to mine

Freedom's just another word for nothin' left to lose
Nothin' ain't worth nothin' but it's free
Feeling good was easy while Bobby sang the blues
Feeling good was good enough for me good enough for me and Bobby McGee
