me and bobby mcgee
Busted flat in Baton Rouge Waitin' for a train When I's feelin' near as faded as my jeans Bobby thumbed a diesel down Just before it rained He rode us all the way to New Orleans I pulled my harpoon Out of my dirty red bandana I was playin' soft while Bobby sang blues Windshield wipers slappin' time I was holdin' Bobby's hand in mine We sang every song that driver knew Freedom's just another word for nothin' left to lose Nothin', I mean nothin' hon' if it ain't free Yeah, feelin' good was easy Lord, when he sang the blues Yeah, feelin' good was good enough for me Good enough for me and my Bobby Mcgee From the Kentucky coal mines To the California sun Yeah, Bobby shared the secrets of my soul Through all kinds of weather Through everything that we done Hey, Bobby baby kept me from the cold One day up near Salinas, Lord I let him slip away He's lookin' for that home, and I hope he finds it Well, I'd trade all o' my tomorrows For one single yesterday To be holdin' Bobby's body next to mine Freedom's just another word for nothin' left to lose Nothin', an' that's all that Bobby left me, la da Oh, feelin' good was easy, Lord, when he sang the blues Yeah, feelin' good was good enough for me, oo oo Good enough for me and my Bobby Mcgee La da da La da da da La da da da da da da da La da da da da da da da Bobby Mcgee, yeah La da da da da da da La da da da da La da da da da da da Bobby Mcgee, yeah La da La la da da la da da la da da La da da da da da da da da Hey now, Bobby, now, now Bobby Mcgee, yeah La la la la la la la la La la la la la la la la la la la la la la la Hey now Bobby now now Bobby Mcgee, yeah Lord, I called him my lover I called him my man I said I called him my lover did the best I cam, c'mon Hey now Bobby now hey now Bobby Mcgee, yeah wooooooo la da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da Hey, hey, hey Bobby Mcgee, yeah
