Johnny Cash - Me and Bobby McGee [Live]Lyrics

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 And was blowing 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 nothing' left to lose Nothin' ain't worth nothin' but it's free Feeling good was easy, Lord, when Bobby sang the blues Feeling good 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, Lord, through everything I've done Every night she kept me from the cold Then somewhere near Salinas, Lord, I let her slip away Lookin' for the home I hope she'll find And I'd trade all my tomorrows for a single yesterday Holdin' Bobby's body next to mine Freedom's just another word for nothing' left to lose Nothin' left is all she left for me Feeling good was easy, Lord, when Bobby sang the blues Buddy, that was good enough for me Good enough for me and Bobby McGee
