|
Busted flat in |
|
Baton Rouge, waitin' for a train |
|
Feeling nearly faded as my jeans |
|
Bobby flagged a diesel down just before it rained |
|
Took us all the way to |
|
New Orleans |
|
I took my harp on 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 every song that driver knew |
|
Freedom's just another word for nothin' left to do |
|
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, |
|
Bobby McGee |
|
From the coal mines of |
|
Kentucky to the |
|
California sun |
|
Bobby shared the secrets of my soul |
|
Standing right beside me, |
|
Lord, in everything |
|
I doneBobby's body kept me from the cold |
|
Then somewhere near |
|
Salinas, Lord, |
|
I let her slip away |
|
Lookin' for that home, |
|
I hope she finds |
|
And I'd trade all my tomorrows for a single yesterday |
|
Holding Bobby's body close to mine |
|
Freedom's just another word for nothin' left to lose |
|
Nothin' was all she left for me |
|
Feelin' good was easy, |
|
Lord, when |
|
Bobby sang the blues |
|
Feelin' good was good enough for me |
|
Good enough for me, |
|
Bobby McGee |
|
Freedom's just another word for nothin' left to lose |
|
Nothin' was all she left for me |
|
Feelin' good was easy, |
|
Lord, when |
|
Bobby sang the blues |
|
Feelin' good was good enough for me |
|
Good enough for me, |
|
Bobby McGee |
