Me and Bobby McGee (Live at Budokan, Tokyo, Japan - Feb. 23, 1984)

[Verse 1]
Busted flat in Baton Rouge, headin' for the trains, feelin' nearly faded as my jeans
Bobby thumbed a diesel down just before it rained and took us all the way to New Orleans
I pulled my harpoon out of my dirty red bandana and 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

[Chorus]
Freedom's just another word for nothin' left to lose
Nothin' ain't worth nothin', but it's free
Feelin' good was easy, Lord, when Bobby sang the blues
And brother, that was good enough for me
Good enough for me and Bobby McGee

[Verse 2]
From thе coalmines of Kentucky to the California sun, Bobby sharеd the secrets of my soul
Standin' right beside me, Lord, through everything I done, and every night, she'd keep me from the cold
And then somewhere near Salinas, Lord, I let her slip away, searchin' for a home I hope she finds
And I'd trade all of my tomorrows for one single yesterday, holdin' Bobby's body next to mine

[Chorus]
Freedom's just another word for nothin' left to lose
Nothin' ain't worth nothin', but it's free
Feelin' good was easy, Lord, when Bobby sang the blues
And brother, that was good enough for me
Good enough for me and Bobby McGee
Brother, that was good enough for me
Good enough for me and Bobby McGee
