Busted flat it Baton Rouge, headin' for the trains 
Feelin' nearly faded as my jeans 
Bobby thumbed a diesel down, just before it rained 
Took us all the way to New Orleans. 

I took my harpoon out of my old dirty red bandana 
I was playin' sad while bobby sang the blues 
With those windshield wipers slappin' time 
And bobby?s clappin? hands we finally 
Sang up every song that driver knew. 

Oh oh oh freedom's just another word 
For nothin' left to lose 
And nothin' ain't worth nothin', but it's free 
Oh oh oh feelin' good was easy, lord 
When bobby sang the blues 
I'm feeling good was good enough for me, bobby mcgee. 

From the coal mines of Kentucky to the California sun 
Bobby shared the secrets of my soul 
Standing right beside me, lord, through everything i?d done 
And every night she kept me from the cold 
Then somewhere near salinas, lord 
I let her slip away 
Looking for that home and I hope she?ll find 
I'll trade all of my tomorrows for a single yesterday 
Holdin' bobby's body next to mine. 

Oh, oh, oh, freedom's just another word 
For nothin' left to lose 
And nothin' left was all she left for me 
Oh, oh, oh, feelin' good was easy, lord 
When bobby sang the blues 
Feeling good was good enough for me & by mcgee. 

Oh, oh, oh, freedom's just another word 
For nothin' left to lose 
And nothin' ain't worth nothin', but it?s free 
Oh, oh, oh, feelin' good was easy, lord
