Me And Bobby Mcgee Lyrics

Me And Bobby Mcgee lyrics

Busted flat in Baton Rouge, waitin' for a train

 And I was feelin' near as faded as my jeans

 Bobby thumbed a diesel down just before it rained

 It rode us all the way into New Orleans

 Now I pulled my harpoon out of my dirty red bandana

 And I was playin' soft while Bobby sang the blues, yeah

 Windshield wipers slappin' time, I was holdin' Bobby's hand in mine

 We sang every song that driver knew, yeah

 

 Freedom was just another word for nothin' left to lose

 Nothin' and it's all there bubbling me

 And feelin' good was easy, Lord, when he sang the blues

 Listen up, feelin' good was good enough for me

 Good enough for me and my Bobby McGee

 

 From the Kentucky coal mine to the California sun

 There Bobby shared the secrets of my soul

 Through all kinds of weather, through everything we done

 Now Bobby baby help me hold it over

 One day up near Salinas, Lord, I let him slip away

 He's lookin' for that home and I hope he finds it

 Cause I'd trade all o' my tomorrows for one single yesterday

 To be holdin' Bobby's body next to mine

 

 Freedom was just another word for nothin' left to lose

 Nothin', that's all that Bobby left me, yeah

 But if feelin' good was easy, Lord, when he sang the blues

 You know, feelin' good was good enough for me, mm-hmm

 Good enough for me and my Bobby McGee

 

 La-da-da La-da-da-da La-da-da da-da da-da

 La-da-da da-la-da la-da, Bobby McGee, yeah

 La-da-la-da-la-da La-da-la-da-da

 Lo-da-lo da-la-lo-da-la

 Lo-da-la-lo da-la-lo la-la-lo la-la-lo la-la

 Hey, my Bobby, Bobby Bobby McGee, yeah

 

 Lord, I call you my lover, call you my man

 I said I call you my lover, just the best I can, c'mon

 Hey now Bobby now, hey now Bobby McGee, yeah

 La-da la-da la-da la-da la-da la-da la-da la-la

 Hey, hey, hey, Bobby McGee, yeah!
