Me And Bobby McGee

[Verse 1] Busted flat in Baton rouge 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 I was 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 [Chorus] Freedom's just another word for nothing left to lose And nothing is worth nothing but it's free Feeling good was easy, Lord, when Bobby sang the blues Buddy, that was good enough for me Good enough for me and Bobby McGee [Verse 2] From the coal mines of Kentucky To the California sun Bobby shared the secrets of my soul Standing right beside me Through everything I've done And every night he kept me from the cold Then somewhere near Salinas I let him slip away Looking for the home I hope he'll find And I'll trade all my tomorrows for a single yesterday Holding Bobby's body next to mine [Chorus] Freedom's just another word for nothing left to lose And nothing is worth nothing but it's free Feeling good was easy, Lord, when Bobby sang the blues Buddy, that was good enough for me Good enough for me and Bobby McGee Enough for me and Bobby McGee Good enough for me and my Bobby McGee I let him slip away Looking for the home I hope he finds Enough for me and my Bobby McGee Enough for me and my Bobby McGee, yeah
