Me and Bobby McGee (Live at the Philharmonic) - Kris Kristofferson/Rita Coolidge

Written by：Kris Kristofferson/Fred Foster/Nick Shaffran

Busted flat in Baton rouge headin' for the train

Feelin' nearly faded as my jeans

Bobby thumbed a diesel down just before it rained

Took us all away to New Orleans

I took my harpoon out of my dirty red bandanna

And was blowin' sad while bobby sang the blues

With those windshield wipers slappin' time

And Bobby clappin' hands we finally sung 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 coalmines of Kentucky to the California sun

Bobby shared the secrets of my soul

Standin' right beside me Lord through every thing I done

Every night she kept me from the cold

Then somewhere near Salinas lord I let her slip away

Lookin' for the home I hope she'll find

And I've trade all my tomorrows for a single yesterday

Holdin' Bobby's body next to mine

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

And Bobby McGee

Good time

Good enough for me and Bobby McGee

But at all good to me

Real and Bobby McGee

Oh any time

Anymore and me and Bobby McGee

One more time
