Me And Bobby Mcgee lyrics
Song information
Artist: Dolly Parton Album: Those Were The Days
Lyrics
Busted flat in baton rouge heading for a train Feeling nearly faded as my jeans Bobby thumbed a diesel down Just before it rained And it took us all the way to new orleans
I took my harmonica from my dirty red bandana I was blowing low while bobby sang the blues With them windshield wipers clappin' time And bobby's hand in mine We finally sang every song that driver knew
Freedom's just another word for nothing left to lose Nothing ain't worth nothing but its free Oh and 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 He was standing right beside me, lord Through every thing I'd done And every night he kept me from the cold
Oh, but somewhere near salinas, lord I let him get away Looking for a home I hope he finds But I'd trade all of my tommorows for a single yesterday Holding bobby's body next to mine
Freedom's just another word for nothing left to lose And nothin', lord is all that bobby left me Oh and feeling good was easy, lord when bobby sang the blues Feeling good was good enough for me (yes it was) Good enough for me and bobby mcgee
Oh, I'm lonely, bobby mcgee Oh, lordy me, ain't you missing me, bobby mcgee
Yeah, he was my lover He was my man But he left me here just wringing my hands Have mercy on me, bobby mcgee Oh, lordy me, come back to me, bobby mcgee
