Me And Bobby Mcgee lyrics
Song information
Artist: Kris Kristofferson Album: Live At The Philharmonic
Lyrics
Busted flat in baton rouge, headin' 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 Took my harpoon out of my dirty red bandana And 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 And nothin' ain't worth nothin' but it's free Feelin' good was easy, lord, when bobby sang the blues And buddy, that was good enough for me Good enough for me and my bobby mcgee
From the coalmines of kentucky to the california sun Bobby shared the secrets of my soul Standin' right beside me through everythin' I done And every night she kept me from the cold Then somewhere near salinas, lord, I let her slip away She was lookin' for the home I hope she'll find Well I'd trade all my tomorrows for a single yesterday Holdin' bobby's body close to mine
Freedom's just another word for nothin' left to lose And nothin' left was all she left to me Feelin' good was easy, lord, when bobby sang the blues And buddy, that was good enough for me Good enough for me and bobby mcgee
