Me & bobby mcgee lyrics

Artist  : Janis joplin 
Song : Me & bobby mcgee
 
Busted flat in Baton Rouge, waiting for a train
And I’s feeling nearly as faded as my jeans.
Bobby thumbed a diesel down just before it
rained,
It rode us all the way to New Orleans. 

I pulled my harpoon out of my dirty red bandanna,
I was playing soft while Bobby sang the blues.
Windshield wipers slapping time, I was holding
Bobby’s hand in mine,
We sang every song that driver knew. 

Freedom is just another word for nothing left to
lose,
Nothing don’t mean nothing honey if it ain’t
free, now now.
And feeling good was easy, Lord, when he sang the
blues,
You know feeling good was good enough for me,
Good enough for me and my Bobby McGee. 

>From the Kentucky coal mines to the California
sun,
Hey, 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 looking for that home and I hope he finds
it,
But I’d trade all of my tomorrows for one single
yesterday
To be holding Bobby’s body next to mine. 

Freedom is just another word for nothing left to
lose,
Nothing, that’s all that Bobby left me, yeah,
But feeling good was easy, Lord, when he sang the
blues,
Hey, feeling good was good enough for me, hmm
hmm,
Good enough for me and my Bobby McGee. 

La la la, la la la la, la la la, la la la la
La la la la la Bobby McGee.
La la la la la, la la la la la
La la la la la, Bobby McGee, la. 

La La la, la la la la la la,
La La la la la la la la la, hey now Bobby now
Bobby McGee yeah.
Na na na na na na na na, na na na na na na na na
na na na
Hey now Bobby now, Bobby McGee, yeah. 

Lord, I’m calling my lover, calling my man,
I said I’m calling my lover just the best I can,
C’mon, where is Bobby now, where is Bobby McGee,
yeah,
Lordy Lordy Lordy Lordy Lordy Lordy Lordy Lord
Hey, hey, hey, Bobby McGee, Lord! 

Yeah! Whew! 

Lordy Lordy Lordy Lordy Lordy Lordy Lordy Lord
Hey, hey, hey, Bobby McGee.
