Me & Bobby McGee

Lyrics

Thank you very much
 ♪
 Busted flat in Baton Rouge, headed for the train
 Feeling nearly faded as my jeans
 Bobby, thumbed a diesel down just before it rained
 Took us all the way to New Orleans
 Pulled my harpoon out of my dirty red bandana
 Was blowing sad while Bobby, sang the blues
 With the windshield wipers slapping time, Bobby, clapping hands
 We finally sang every song that driver knew
 Freedom's just another word for nothing left to lose
 Nothing ain't worth nothing but it's free
 Feeling good was easy when Bobby, sang the blues
 Brother 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
 Standing right beside me Lord, through everything I'd done
 Every night she'd keep me from the cold
 Then somewhere near Salinas, Lord, I let her slip away
 Searching for the home I hope she'll find
 I'd trade all of my tomorrow's for one single yesterday
 Holding Bobby's, body next to mine
 Freedom's just another word for nothing left to lose
 Nothing ain't worth nothing but it's free
 Feeling good was easy, Lord, when Bobby sang the blues
 Brother that was good enough for me
 Good enough for me and Bobby McGee
 Brother that was good enough for me
 Good enough for me and Bobby McGee
 ♪
 Thank you very much, thank you
