Lyrics

Busted flat in Baton Rouge, headed 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 took my harpoon out of my dirty red bandana I was blowin' 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 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 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 she'd keep me from the cold And then one day near Salinas Lord, I let her slipped away Searchin' for the home I hope she'll find And I'd trade all of my tomorrows for one single yesterday Holdin' Bobby's body close to mine 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, buddy that was good enough for me And Waylon and Johnny and Willy Good enough for me and Bobby McGee (Yeah, Willy) yeah Good enough for me and Bobby McGee I feel good and Bobby McGee, yeah Freedom's just another word for nothin' left to lose Nothin' ain't worth nothin' but it's free (And it don't cost nothin') Feeling good was easy Lord, when Bobby sang the blues Buddy that was good enough for me Good enough for me and Bobby McGee, yeah
