Me & Bobby Mcgee Lyrics

Busted flat in Baton Rouge
Waiting for a train
Feeling nearly faded as my jeans

And 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 blowing sad while bobby sang the blues

With them windshield wipers slapping time
And Bobby clapping hands
We finally sang near-every song that driver knew

Freedom's just another word for
Nothing left to do
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
In everything I done
Bobby's body kept me from the cold

Then somewhere near Salinas
Lord, I let her slip away
Looking 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
Nothing left to lose
Nothing was all she left for me

Feeling good was easy, Lord
When Bobby sang the blues
Feeling good was good enough for me
Good enough for me and Bobby McGee

Freedom's just another word for
Nothing left to do
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
