Me and Bobby McGee

Janis Joplin Nr.: 58
Busted flat in Baton Rouge, waitin' for a trainWhen I's feelin' near as faded as my jeansBobby thumbed a diesel down, just before it rainedAnd rode us all the way into New Orleans

I pulled my harpoon out of my dirty red bandanaI playin' soft while Bobby sang the bluesWindshield wipers slappin' time, I`m holdin' Bobby's hand in mineWe sang every song that driver knew

Freedom is just another word for nothin' left to loseNothin', it ain`t nothin' honey if it ain't free, And feelin' good was easy, Lord, when he sang the bluesYou know feelin' good was good enough for meGood enough for me and my Bobby McGee

From the Kentucky coal mine to the California sunThere Bobby shared the secrets of my soulThrough all kinds of weather, through everything we doneYeah, Bobby baby, kept me from the cold

One day up near Salinas, Lord, I let him slip awayHe's lookin' for that home, and I hope he finds itBut, I'd trade all of my tomorrows, for one single yesterdayTo be holdin' Bobby's body next to mine

Freedom is just another word for nothin' left to loseNothin', and that's all that Bobby left me, yeahBut feelin' good was easy, Lord, when he sang the bluesThat feelin' good was good enough for me,Good enough for me and my Bobby McGee

La-da-da, la-da-da-da,......
