Me and Bobby McGee Lyrics
Me and Bobby McGee - Jack Hudson
Busted flat in Baton Rouge headin' 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 harpoon out of my dirty red bandanna
I was blowin' sad while Bobby sang the blues
With them windshield wipers slappin' time and Bobby clappin' hands
We finally sang up every song that driver knew
Freedom's just another word for nothin' left to lose
Nothin' ain't worth nothin' but it's free
Feelin' good was easy Lord when Bobby sang the blues
Feelin' 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've done
Every night she kept me from the cold
Then somewhere near Salinas Lord I let her slip away
Searchin' for the home I hope she'll find
And I'd give all my tomorrows for a single yesterday
Holdin' Bobby's body close to mine
Freedom's just another word for nothing' left to lose
Nothin' left is all she left for me
Feeling good was easy Lord when Bobby sang the blues
Feeling good was good enough for me
Good enough for me and Bobby McGee
