Me & Bobby McGee Video (MV)






Barbara Ray - Me & Bobby McGee Lyrics
Official




Busted flat in Baton Rouge
Waiting for the train
I was feeling nearly faded as my jeans
Bobby thumbed a diesel down
Just before it rained
It took 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
Those windshield wipers slapping time
I was holding Bobby's hand in mine
We sang every song that driver knew

Freedom's just another word for nothing left to lose (Bob, Bob, Bobby McGee) (Bob, Bob, Bobby McGee)
Nothing is worth nothing if it ain't free (Nothing ain't free)
And, feelin' good was easy, Lord, when he sang the blues (Bob, Bob, Bobby McGee) (Bob, Bob, Bobby McGee)
You know, feelin' good was good enough for me (For me)
Good enough
For me and my Bobby McGee

(Yeah)

From the Kentucky coal mine
To the California sun
Yeah Bobby shared the secrets of my soul
Through all kinds of weather
Through everything we done
Yeah, Bobby baby kept me from the cold

One day near Salinas, Lord
I let him slip away
He's looking for a home, and I hope he finds it
Well, I'd trade all of my tomorrows
For a single yesterday
To be holdin' Bobby's body close to mine

Freedom's just another word for
Nothin' left to lose (Bob, Bob, Bobby McGee) (Bob, Bob, Bobby McGee)
Nothing is what nothing, if it ain't free (Nothing ain't free)
You know, feeling good was easy, Lord
When Bobby sang the blues (Bob, Bob, Bobby McGee) (Bob, Bob, Bobby McGee)
You know, feeling good was good enough for me
Good enough for me and my Bobby McGee

Bobby McGee
Bobby McGee
(Bob, Bob, Bobby)
(Bob, Bob, Bobby)
(Bob, Bob, Bobby)
Bobby McGee
(Bobby McGee)

(Bob, Bob, Bobby)
(Bob, Bob, Bobby)
(Bob, Bob, Bobby)
Bobby McGee
(Booby McGee)

(Bob, Bob, Bobby)
(Bob, Bob, Bobby)
(Bob, Bob, Bobby)
Bobby McGee
(Booby McGee)
