Busted flat in Baton Rouge, waitin' for a train
I's feelin' near as faded as my jeans
Bobby thumbed the diesel down, just before it rained
Rode us all the way to New Orleans

I pulled my harpoon out of my dirty red bandanna
I was playin' soft while Bobby sang the blues
Windshield wipers slappin' time, I was holdin' Bobby's hand in mine
We sang every song that driver knew

Freedom's just another word for nothin' left to lose
Oh, nothin', it ain't nothin' hon' if it ain't free
Oh, feelin' good was easy, oh, when Bobby sang the blues
You know, feelin' good was good enough for me
Good enough for me and my Bobby McGee

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

One day up near Salinas, oh, I let him slip away
He's lookin' for that home, and I hope he finds it
Well, I'd trade all of my tomorrows, for one single yesterday
To be holdin' Bobby's body next to mine

Freedom's just another word for nothin' left to lose
Oh, nothin', and that's all that Bobby left me
Oh, feelin' good was easy, oh, when he sang the blues
You know, feelin' good was good enough for me
Good enough for me and my Bobby McGee

Oh, la la la la la la la la
Oh, la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la
Hey, now, Bobby, Bobby
Bobby McGee, oh

I call him my lover, I call him my man
Call him my lover did the best I can, c'mon
C'mon, Bobby now,
C'mon, Bobby McGee, yeah

Oh, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la la
Hey, hey, hey Bobby McGee, yeah
