Me and Bobby Mcgee

Me and Bobby Mcgee - Big Band Country

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

I took my harpoon out of

My dirty red bandana

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 feel good

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

The somewhere near salinas

I let her slip away

She was looking for the hope

I hope she'll find

Well I'd trade all my tomorrows for a single yesterday

Holding bobby's body close to mine

Freedom's just another word for nothing left to lose

And nothing left was all she left to me

Feeling good was easy

Lord

When bobby sang the blues

And good

That was good enough for me

Good enough for me and bobby mcgee

And bobby mcgee
