Me and Bobby McGee

Me and Bobby McGee - Roy Drusky/Various Artists

Busted flat in baton rouge and 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 old dirty red bandanna

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

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 the secrets of my soul

Standing right beside me lord through everything i've done

Every night she kept me from the cold

Then somewhere near salinas i let her slip away

Searching for the home i hope she'll find

And i'd trade all my tomorrows for one single yesterday

Holding bobby's body close to mine

Freedom's just another word for nothing left to lose

Nothing left is all she left for me

Feeling good was easy lord when bobby sang the blues

Buddy that was good good enough for me

Good enough for me and bobby mcgee

La la la

Me and bobby mcgee
