Busted flat in Baton Rouge waitin' for the trains feelin' 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 har'poon out of my dirty red bandana
|
I was playing sad while Bobby sang the blues
|
Windshield whipers slapping time holding Bobby's hand in mine
|
We sang up ever song that driver knew
|
Freedom's just another word for nothing left to lose
|
Nothing ain't worth nothing but it's free
|
Feeling good was easy Lord 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 all the secrets of my soul
|
Through all kinds of weather Lord through everything we done
|
Yeah Bobby baby kept me from the cold
|
Then somewhere near Salinas Lord I let him slip away
|
He's a looking for a home I hope he'll find
|
I'd trade all of my tomorrows for a single yesterday
|
A holding Bobby's body next to mine
|
Freedom's just another word...
|
Mhmm mhmm mhm my Bobby McGee
|
Mhmm mhmm mhm me and Bobby McGee
|
