Me and Bobby McGee |
Busted flat in Baton Rouge, heading for the trains |
Feeling nearly faded as my jeans |
Bobby thumbed a diesel down just before it rained |
Took us all the way to New Orleans |
Took my harpoon out of my dirty red bandana |
And 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 |
Freedom’s just another word for nothing left to lose |
And nothing ain’t worth nothing but it’s free |
Feeling good was easy, Lord, when Bobby sang the blues |
And buddy, that was good enough for me |
Good enough for me and my Bobby McGee |
From the coalmines of Kentucky to the California sun |
Bobby shared the secrets of my soul |
Standing right beside me through everything I done |
And every night she kept me from the cold |
Then somewhere near Salinas, Lord, I let her slip away |
She was looking for the love I hope she’ll find |
Well I’d trade all my tomorrows for a single yesterday |
Holding Bobby’s body close to mine |
