Me and Bobby McGee

La la la la la la (Bobby McGee) La la la la la la (Bobby McGee) La la la la la la (Bobby McGee) La la la la la la me and Bobby McGee Busted flat in Baton Rouge headin' for the trains feelin' nearly faded as my jeans Bobby thumbed a diesel down just before it rained took us all the way to New Orleans I pulled my ol' har'poon out of my dirty red bandana And was blowin' sad while Bobby sang the blues With those windshield whipers 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' 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 La la la la la la (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 done Every night he kept me from the cold Then somewhere near Salinas Lord I let him slip away Searching for the home I hope he'll find And I'd give all of my tomorrows for a single yesterday Holdin' Bobby's body close to mine Freedom's just another word... La la la la la la (Bobby McGee)...
