Me And Bobby Mcgee

(álbum: Sings Kristofferson - 1979)

Busted flat in Baton Rouge headed for the trains feeling 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 har'poon out of my dirty red bandana
And was blowing sad while Bobby sang the blues
And with the windshield whipers slapping time
And Bobby clapping hands we finally sang up every song that driver knew
Freedom's just another word for nothing left to lose
And nothing ain't worth nothing but it's free
Feeling good was easy Lord when Bobby sang the blues
And body that was good enough for me good enough for me and Bobby McGee
[guitar]
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 done
And every night she kept me from the cold
Then somewhere near Salinas Lord I let her slip away
Looking for the home I hope she'll find
And I'd trade all of my tomorrows for a single yesterday
Holding Bobby's body next to mine
Freedom's just another word...
[guitar harmonica]
