Busted flat in Baton Rouge, waitin' for a train
|
An' I's feeling nearly as faded as my jeans
|
Bobby thumbed a diesel down, just before it rained
|
I headed all the way to New Orleans
|
|
I pulled my harpoon out of my dirty red bandana
|
I was playing soft while Bobby sang the blues, Lord
|
Windshield wipers slapping time, I was holding Bobby's hand in mine
|
We sang every song the driver knew
|
|
Freedom's just another word for nothing left to lose
|
Ah, nothing, honey if it ain't free, Lord
|
|
Feeling good was easy, Lord,
|
when he sang the blues
|
Feeling good was good enough for me
|
Good enough for me and my Bobby McGee.
|
|
From the Kentucky coal mines to the California sun
|
Yeah, Bobby shared the secrets of my soul
|
Through all kinds of weather, through everything we done
|
Yeah, Bobby baby kept me from the cold
|
|
I pulled up near Salinas, Lord, I let him slip away
|
He's lookin' for that home, and I hope he finds it
|
Well, I'd trade all my tomorrows for one single yesterday
|
To be holdin' Bobby's body next to mine
|
|
Freedom's just another word for nothing left to lose
|
Ah, nothing, well that's all that Bobby left me, Lord
|
|
Feeling good was easy, Lord
|
when he sang the blues
|
Feeling good was good enough for me
|
Good enough for me and my Bobby McGee.
