|
Busted flat in |
|
Baton rouge, headin' for the train |
|
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 bandanna |
|
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 |
|
And nothin' ain't worth nothin' but it's free |
|
Feelin' good was easy, |
|
Lord, when |
|
Bobby sang the blues |
|
Buddy, that 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 through everything |
|
I've doneAnd every night he kept me from the cold |
|
Then somewhere near |
|
Salinas I let him slip away |
|
Lookin' for the home |
|
I hope he'll find |
|
And I'll trade all my tomorrows for a single yesterday |
|
Holdin' Bobby's body next to mine |
|
Freedom's just another word for nothin' left to lose |
|
Nothin' left is all he left me, yeah |
|
Feelin' good was easy, |
|
Lord, when |
|
Bobby sang the blues |
|
Buddy, that was good enough for me |
|
Good enough for me and |
|
Bobby McGee |
|
Enough for me and |
|
Bobby McGee |
|
Good enough for me and my |
|
Bobby McGee |
|
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 |
|
Buddy, that was good enough for me |
|
Good enough for me and |
|
Bobby McGee |
|
From the coal mines of |

Good enough for me and my |
|
Bobby McGee, yeah |
|
I let him slip away lookin' for the home |
|
I hope he finds |
|
Enough for me and my |

Bobby McGee |
|
Good enough for me and my |

Bobby McGee, yeah |
