Me and Bobby McGee (Live)

Busted flat in Baton Rouge, headed 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 bandana
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
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
Standin' right beside me Lord, through everything I done
Every night she'd keep me from the cold

And then one day near Salinas Lord, I let her slipped away
Searchin' for the home I hope she'll find
And I'd trade all of my tomorrows for one single yesterday
Holdin' Bobby's body close to mine

Freedom's just another word for nothin' left to lose
Nothin' ain't worth nothin' but it's free
Feeling good was easy Lord, when Bobby sang the blues
Feeling good, buddy that was good enough for me
And Waylon and Johnny and Willy
Good enough for me and Bobby McGee

(Yeah, Willy) yeah

Good enough for me and Bobby McGee

I feel good and Bobby McGee, yeah

Freedom's just another word for nothin' left to lose
Nothin' ain't worth nothin' but it's free
(And it don't cost nothin')
Feeling good was easy Lord, when Bobby sang the blues
Buddy that was good enough for me
Good enough for me and Bobby McGee, yeah
