[Intro]
G
[Verse 1]
GReal busted flat in Baton Rouge, waitin' for a train
When I was feelin' near as faded as Dmy jeans
DBobby thumbed a diesel down, just before it rained
That rode us all the way in to New OrGleans
GWell, I pulled my harpoon out of my dirty red bandana
I was playin' softly while Bobby sang the Cblues, yeah
And with those windshield wipers slappin' time, I was Gholdin' Bobby's hand in mine
And Dwe sang every song that driver knew
[Chorus]
Oh, Cfreedom's just another word Gfor nothin' left to lose
And then Dnothin', don't mean nothin', honey, if it ain't Gfree
And you know Cfeelin' good was easy, LGord, when he sang the blues
You know Dfeelin' good was good enough for me
Well, it was good enough for me and my Bobby GMcGee A
[Verse 2]
AFrom the Kentucky coal mines to the California sun
Yeah, Bobby shared the secrets of my Esoul
EThrough all kinds of weather, through everything between
Yeah, Bobby baby kept me from the Acold
AOne day up near Salinas, I let him slip away
And he's searchin' for that home, and I hope he finds Dit
But I'd trade all of my tomorrows for one Asingle yesterday
To be Eholdin' Bobby's body next to mine
Cause it was good enough for me and my Bobby AMcGee
