Busted flat in Baton Rouge
I headed for the train Feeling 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 dirty red bandana And was blowing sad while Bobby sang the blues And with the windshield wipers slapping time And Bobby clapping hands 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 Feeling good was easy when Bobby sang the blues And buddy that 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 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 the home I hope she'll find And I'd trade all my tomorrow's for a single yesterday Of holding Bobby's body next to mine Freedom's just another word for nothing left to lose Nothing ain't worth nothing but its free Feeling good was easy when Bobby sang the blues And buddy that was good enough for me Good enough for me and Bobby McGee |

Just like the sun over the mountain top
you know I'll always come again You know I love to spend my morning time like sunlight dancing on your skin And I have never gone so long just for telling lies to you What you've seen is what I've been There is nothing that I can hide a few you see me better than I can Out on the road that lies before me now there are some turns where I will spin I only hope that you will hold me now till I gain control again Just like a lighthouse you must stand alone and mark the sailors journey's end And no matter what sea that I've been sailing on I'll always roll this way again Out on the road that lies... |

If you had not have fallen
Then I would not have found you Angel flying too close to the ground And I patched up your broken wing And hung around a while Tried to keep your spirits up And your fever down I knew someday that you would fly away For love's the greatest healer to be found So leave me if you need to I will still remember Angel flying too close to the ground Fly on, fly on past the speed of sound I'd rather see you up Than see you down Leave me if you need to I will still remember Angel flying too close to the ground |

Please come to Boston for the spring time
I'm staying here with some friends And they've got lots of room You can sell your paintings on the sidewalk By a cafe where I hope to be working soon Please come to Boston She said, no, would come home to me And she said, ramblin' boy why don't you settle down Boston ain't your kind of town There ain't no gold, and there ain't nobody like me I'm the number one fan of the man from Tennessee Please come to Denver with the snow fall We'll move up into the mountains So far we can't be found And throw I love you echoes down the canyon And then lie awake at night until they come back around Please come to Denver She said, no, would you come home to me And she said, ramblin' boy why don't you settle down Denver ain't your kind of town There ain't no gold, and there ain't nobody like me I'm the number one fan of the man from Tennessee Now, this drifter's world goes 'round and 'round And I doubt it's ever gonna stop But of all the dreams I've lost or found and all that I ain't got I still need to lean to Somebody I can sing to Please come to L. A. and live forever California life alone is just too hard to build I live in a house that looks out over the ocean And there's some stars that fell from the sky Livin' up on the hill Please come to L. A. She just said, no, would you come home to me And she said, ramblin' boy why don't you settle down L. A. ain't your kind of town There ain't no gold, and there ain't nobody like me I'm the number one fan of the man from Tennessee I'm the number one fan of the man from Tennessee |

Pretend I never happened
Erase me from your mind You will not want to remember Any love as cold as mine I'll be leaving in the morning For a place that I hope I find All the places must be better Than the ones I leave behind But I don't suppose you'll be unhappy You'll find ways to spend your time And if you ever think about me And if I ever cross your mind Just pretend I never happened Erase me from your mind You will not want to remember Any love as cold as mine But I don't suppose you'll be unhappy You'll find ways to spend your time And if you ever think about me And if I ever cross your mind Just pretend I never happened Erase me from your mind You will not want to remember Any love as cold as mine Any love as cold as mine |

She's a railroad lady
Just a little bit shady Spending her days on a train She's the semi good looker But the fast rails they took her Now she's trying just trying To get home again South station in Boston To the stockyards of Austin From the Florida sunshine To the New Orleans rain Now that the rail packs Have taken the best tracks She's trying just trying To get back home again She's a railroad lady Just a little bit shady Spending her days on a train Once a pullin' car traveler Now a brakemen won't have her She's trying just trying To get home again Once a high-balling loner Thought he could own her And he bought her a fur coat And a big diamond ring But she hung in for cold cash Left down on the Wabash Never thinking never thinking Of home way back then But the rails are now rusty And the dining car's dusty The gold plated watches Are taking their gold The railroads're dying And the lady is crying On a bus to Kentucky And home that's her goal She's a railroad lady... On a bus to Kentucky and home once again |

It must have been cold there in my shadow to never have sunlight on your face
You've been content to let me shine you always walked a step behind I was the one with all the glory while you were the one with all the strength Only a face without a name I never once heard you complain Did you ever know that you're my hero and everything I'd like to be I can fly higher than an eagle but you are the wind beneath my wings It might have appeared to go unnoticed I've got it all here in my heart I want you to know I know the truth I would be nothing without you Did you ever know... You are the wind beneath my wings |

I can hear the wind a blowing in my mind
Just the way it used to sound Through the Georgia pines And you were there to answer when I called You and me we had it all Remember how I used to touch your hair? While reaching for the feeling That was always there You were the best thing in my life I can recall you and me we had it all I know that we can never live those times again So I let my dreams take me back To where we have been Then I'll stay with you girl as long as I can Oh it was so good oh it was so good Oh it was so good when I was your man I'll never stop believing in your smile Even though you didn't stay It was all worthwhile You were the best thing in my life I can recall you and me we had it all You and me we had it all |

Pay no mind to her
She only wants to play But she's not for you She's not for you And I'm the only one Who would let her act this way But she's not for you She's not for you So she told you she found Heaven in your eyes Well I think it only fair To warn you that Sometimes she lies But it's your heart I can't tell you What to do But she's not for you She's not for you She just looks for Greener pastures now and then And when she grows tired She knows Old Faithful Will just take her back again So just leave her here I'm used to feeling blue She's not for you She's not for you She's not for you She's not for you |

Just can't wait to get on the road again
The life I love is makin' music with my friends And I can't wait to get on the road again On the road again Goin' places that I've never been Seein' things that I may never see again, And I can't wait to get on the road again. On the road again Like a band of gypsies we go down the highway We're the best of friends Insisting that the world be turnin' our way And our way Is on the road again Just can't wait to get on the road again The life I love is makin' music with my friends And I can't wait to get on the road again On the road again Like a band of gypsies we go down the highway We're the best of friends Insisting that the world be turnin' our way And our way Is on the road again Just can't wait to get on the road again The life I love is makin' music with my friends And I can't wait to get on the road again And I can't wait to get on the road again |

I grew up a-dreamin' of bein' a cowboy,
and Lovin' the cowboy ways. Pursuin' the life of my high-ridin' heroes, I burned up my childhood days. I learned of all the rules of the modern-day drifter, Don't you hold on to nothin' too long. Just take what you need from the ladies, then leave them, With the words of a sad country song. My heroes have always been cowboys. And they still are, it seems. Sadly, in search of, but one step in back of, Themselves and their slow-movin' dreams. Cowboys are special with their own brand of misery, From being alone too long. You could die from the cold in the arms of a nightmare, Knowin' well that your best days are gone. Pickin' up hookers instead of my pen, I let the words of my years fade away. Old worn-out saddles, and 'old worn-out memories, With no one and no place to stay. My heroes have always been cowboys. And they still are, it seems. Sadly, in search of, but one step in back of, Themselves and their slow-movin' dreams. Sadly, in search of, but one step in back of, Themselves and their slow-movin' dreams. |

In the twilight glow I see you
이글거리는 황혼녘에서 난 그대를 바라봅니다 Blue eyes crying in the rain 빗속에서 우는 그대의 슬픈 눈동자 As we kissed goodbye and parted 우리가 작별의 키스를 하고 떠날 때 I knew we'd never meet again 난 우리가 결코 다시는 못 만날거라는 걸 알았지요 Love is like a dying ember 사랑은 죽어가는 장작불 같아요 Only memories remain 단지 추억만 남아 있을 뿐 Through the ages I'll remember 비록 시간이 지난다해도 난 기억할 겁니다 Blue eyes crying in the rain 빗속에서 울던 그대의 슬픈 눈동자를 Now my hair has turned to silver 이제 나의 머리는 은빛으로 변했고 All my life I've loved in vain 나의 모든 삶에서 난 헛되이 사랑을 했나봐요 I can see her star in heaven 난 천국에 있는 그녀의 별을 볼 수 있어요 Blue eyes crying in the rain 빗속에서 울던 그대의 슬픈 눈동자를 Someday when we meet up yonder 언젠가는 우리가 천국에서 만나겠지요 We'll stroll hand in hand again 우린 다시 손을 잡고 산책을 할 수 있을거예요 In a land that knows no parting 이별이 없는 그 영원한 세계에서 Blue eyes crying in the rain 빗속에서 울던 그대의 슬픈 눈동자 |

I've got a long list of real good reasons
For all the things I've done I've got a picture in the back of my mind Of what I've lost and what I've won I've survived every situation Knowing when to freeze and when to run And regret is just a memory written on my brow And there's nothing I can do about it now. I've got a wild and a restless spirit I held my price through every deal I've seen the fire of a woman's scorned Turn her heart of gold to steal I've got the song of the voice inside me Set to the rhythm of the wheel And I've been dreaming like a child Since the cradle broke the bow And there's nothing I can do about it now. Running through the changes Going through the stages Coming round the corners in my life Leaving doubt to fate Staying out too late Waiting for the moon to say goodniight And I could cry for the time I've wasted But that's a waste of time and tears, And I know just what I'd change If went back in time somehow But there's nothing I can do about it now Running through the changes Going through the stages Coming round the corners in my life Leaving doubt to fate Staying out too late Waiting for the moon to say goodniight And I could cry for the time I've wasted But that's a waste of time and tears And I know just what I'd change If went back in time somehow But there's nothing I can do about it now. I'm forgiving everything that forgiveness will allow And there's nothing I can do about it now |

Georgia, Georgia, the whole day through.
An' just an old sweet song keeps Georgia on my mind. Georgia, Georgia, a song of you, Comes as sweet and clear as moonlight through the pines. Other arms reach out to me; Other eyes smile tenderly. Still in peaceful dreams I see, The road leads back to you. Georgia, Georgia, no peace I find. Just an old sweet song keeps Georgia on my mind. Instrumental break. Georgia, Georgia, no peace I find. Just an old sweet song keeps Georgia on my mind. Just an old sweet song keeps Georgia on my mind. On my mind. On my mind. On my mind. On my mind. On my mind. On my mind. On my mind. To Fade out. |

Maybe I didn't treat you Quite
as good as I should have 어쩌면 나 내가 할 수 있는 만큼 당신에게 잘 대해주지 않았는지도 몰라요 Maybe I didn't love you Quite as often as I could have 어쩌면 나 최선을 다해서 당신을 사랑하지 않았는지도 몰라요 Little things I should have said and done 작은 부분까지 말해주고 해줬어야 했는데 I just never took the time 그러질 못했어요 You were always on my mind 내 맘속엔 언제나 당신이 있었는데 You are always on my mind 내 맘속엔 언제나 당신이 있었는데 Maybe I didn't hold you All those lonely, lonely times 어쩌면 당신이 정말 외롭고 외로웠을 때 당신을 안아주지도 않았을 거에요 And I guess I never told you I'm so happy that you're mine 당신이 내 사랑이어서 너무 행복하다고 말한 적도 없네요 If I make you feel second best 당신이 뒷전이라는 그런 느낌이 들었다면 Girl, I'm sorry I was blind 그대, 정말 미안해요 내가 바보였어요 You were always on my mind 내 맘속엔 언제나 당신이 있었는데 You are always on my mind 내 맘속엔 언제나 당신이 있었는데 Tell me, tell me that your sweet love hasn't died 말해줘요.. 당신의 달콤한 사랑이 사라지지 않았다고 말해줘요 Give me, give me one more chance 내게 줘요.. 한번만 더 기회를 내게 주세요 To keep you satisfied, satisfied 당신을 만족시킬 수 있는 기회를 줘요 Little things I should have said and done 작은 부분까지 말하고 행동했어야 했는데 I just never took the time 그런 적이 없었어요 You were always on my mind 내 맘속엔 언제나 당신이 있었는데 You are always on my mind 내 맘속엔 언제나 당신이 있었는데 |

Ridin' on the City of New Orleans
Illinois Central, Monday mornin' rail Fifteen cars and fifteen restless riders Three conductors and twenty-five sacks of mail All along the south-bound odyssey The train pulls out at Kankakee And rolls along past houses, farms and fields Passin' trains that have no names And freight yards full of old black men And the grave-yards of the rusted automobiles Good morning America, how are you? Say don't you know me, I'm your native son I'm the train they call the City of New Orleans And I'll be gone five-hundred miles when the day is done Dealin' cards with the old men in the club car Penny a point ain't no one keepin' score Pass the paper bag that holds the bottle Feel the wheels grumblin' 'neath the floor And the sons of Pullman porters, and the sons of engineers Ride their father's magic carpet made of steel Mothers with their babes asleep, rockin' to the gentle beat And the rhythm of the rails is all they feel Good morning America, how are you? Say don't you know me, I'm your native son I'm the train they call the City of New Orleans I'll be gone five-hundred miles when the day is done Night time on the City of New Orleans Changin' cars in Memphis, Tennessee Halfway home, we'll be there by mornin' Thru the Mississippi darkness rollin' down to the sea But all the towns and people seem to fade into a bad dream And the steel rails still ain't heard the news The conductor sings his songs again The passengers will please refrain This train has got the disappearin' railroad blues. Goodnight America, how are you? Say don't you know me, I'm your native son I'm the train they call the City of New Orleans I'll be gone five-hundred miles when the day is done |

All alone at the end of the evening
And the bright lights have faded to blue I was thinkin' about a woman who might have loved me And I never knew You know I've always been a dreamer Spent my life running 'round And it's so hard to change can't seem to settle down But the dreams I've seen lately Keep on turnin' out and burnin' out And turnin' out the same So put me on a highway and show me a sign And take it to the limit one more time You can spend all your time making money You can spend all your love making time If it all fell to pieces tomorrow Would you still be mine? When you're looking for more freedom And nobody seems to care And you can't find the door well you can't find it anywhere When there's nothin' to believe in Still you're coming back, you're running back You're coming back for more So put me on the highway and show me a sign And take it to the limit one more time Take it to the limit, take it to the limit Take it to the limit one more time |

[ duet with Emmylou Harris ]
Angel eyes angel eyes The ways of the world are feeble don't give up on simple people Angle eyes stun those nights The blues you can live wthout it's not what you song's about Angel eyes angel eyes Tell me what would we're doin' without the light from angel eyes You can move the hearts of men Just with a phrase you're turning since hearts ever have been yearning Bear with us bear so alone Thin lines you've been living on are so close to the danger zone Angel eyes angel eyes Tell me what would we're doin' without the light from angel eyes |

That big eight-wheeler, rollin' down the track
Means your true-lovin' daddy ain't comin' back Cause I'm movin'on, I'll soon be gone You were flyin' too high, for my little old sky So I'm movin' on. That big loud whistle, as it blew and blew Said hello to the southland, we're comin' to you And we're movin' on, oh, hear my song You had the laugh on me, so I set you free And I'm movin' on. Mister fireman, won't you please listen to me Cause I got a pretty mama in Tennessee Keep movin' me on, keep rollin' on So shovel the coal, let this rattler roll And keep movin' me on. Mister Engineer, take that throttle in hand This rattler's the fastest in the southern land To keep movin' me on, keep rollin' on You gonna ease my mind, put me there on time And keep rollin' on. I've told you baby, from time to time But you just wouldn't listen or pay me no mind Now I'm movin' on, I'm rollin' on You've broken your vow, and it's all over now So I'm movin' on. You've switched your engine, now I ain't got time For a triflin' woman on my main line Cause I'm movin' on, you done your daddy wrong I warned you twice, now you can settle the price Cause I'm movin' on. But someday baby, when you've had your play You're gonna want your daddy, but your daddy will say Keep movin' on, you stayed away too long I'm through with you, too bad you're blue Keep movin' on. |

As I look at the letters that you wrote to me
it's you that I am thinking of As I read the lines that to me were so sweet I remember our faded love I miss you darling more and more every day as heaven would miss the stars above With every heartbeat I still think of you and remember our faded love I think of the past and all the pleasures we've had as I watch the mating of the dove It was in the springtime that you said goodbye I remember our faded love I miss you darling... |

Well I gotta get drunk
And I sure do dread it Cause I know just what I'm gonna do I'll start to spend my money Call everybody honey And wind up singing the blues I'll spend my whole paycheck On some old wreck And brother I can name you a few But I gotta get drunk And I sure do dread it Cause I know just what I'm gonna do I gotta get drunk I just can't stay sober There's a lot of good people in town Who'd like to hear me holler See me spend my dollars And I wouldn't think of lettin' 'em down There's a lot of doctors that tell me That I'd better start slowin' it down But there's more old drunkers Than there are old doctors So I guess we'd better have another round Well now I gotta get drunk Well I gotta get drunk |

Reasons to quit the smoke and booze don't do me like before
And I'm hardly ever sober and my old friends don't come around much anymore Reasons to quit below it always lower than the high And the reasons to quit don't out number all the reasons why So we keep smokin' and we keep drinkin' havin' fun and never thinkin' Laughin' at the price tags that we pay And we keep rollin' down the fast lane like two young men feelin' no pain And the reasons for quittin's gettin' bigger each day Reasons to quit I can't afford the habit all the time I need to be sober I need to write some new songs that will rhyme Reasons to quit they have no rhyme or reason when you're high And the reasons to quit don't out number all the reasons why ( guitar ) We keep smokin' and we keep drinkin'... And the reasons for quittin's gettin' bigger each day |

He looked down into her brown eyes,
Said, " Say a prayer for me." She threw her arms around him, Whispered, "God will keep us free." And they could hear the riders comin, He said, "This is my last fight. If they take me back to Texas, They won't take me back alive." **Chorus** And there were seven Spanish Angels, At the alter of the Sun. They were prayin' for the lovers, In the valley of the gun. And when the battle stopped, And the smoke cleared. There was thunder from the throne. And seven Spanish angels, Took another angel home. She reached down and picked the gun up, That lay smokin in his hand. Said, "Father please forgive me, I can't make it without my man." And she knew the gun was empty, And she knew she couldn't win. But her final prayer was answered, When the rifles fired again. **Chorus |

Where's my pal, where's my friend?
All good things must have an end Sad things and nothing's on and on they go I guess he went to Mexico They all went to Mexico Buenas dias got to go Tengo que obedecer mi corazon They all went to Mexico Where's my mule and where's my dray? Straw hat's packed up and gone away Mule don't go north and dray go slow They both went to Mexico Where's my sweetie, where's the face That lit dark corners every place? She put up with me long time you know And then she had to go to Mexico They all went to Mexico Buenas dias got to go Tengo que obedecer mi corazon They all went to Mexico Where's my brown dog, where's my hound? He liked my truck, he hung around But he's a canine romeo And I guess he went to Mexico Where's that woman, so sweet so mean? Her heart was cautious, her mind was keen She was always looking for the peccadillo I hope she went to Mexico They all went to Mexico Buenas dias got to go Tengo que obedecer mi corazon They all went to Mexico Where's December's happy crew With German bikes and sidecars too? They take the truck south to St. Louis Motorcycle all the way to Mexico Where's my luck and where's my grace? Has it all been just a foolish chase? Every time I hear that rainy chill wind blow I think it might be time to head to Mexico They all went to Mexico Buenas dias got to go Tengo que obedecer mi corazon They all went to Mexico They all went to Mexico Buenas dias got to go Tengo que obedecer mi corazon They all went to Mexico |

Hello walls, (Hello, hello.)
How'd things go for you today? Don't you miss her. Since she up and walked away? And I'll bet you dread to spend another lonely night with me, But lonely walls, I'll keep you company. Hello window, (Hello, hello.) Well, I see that you're still here. Aren't you lonely, Since our darlin disappeared? Well look here, is that a teardrop in the corner of your pane? Now don't you try to tell me that's it's rain. She went away and left us all alone the way she planned. Guess we'll have to learn to get along without her if we can. Hello ceiling, (Hello, hello.) I'm gonna stare at you a while. You know I can't sleep, So won't you bear with me a while? We gotta all stick together or else I'll lose my mind. I gotta feelin' she'll be gone a long, long time. (Hello, hello wall.) |

Oh since my baby left me I've found new place to dwell
Down at the end on Lonely Street at Heartbreak Hotel I get so lonely baby I get so lonely baby I get so lonely I could die And though it's always crowded you can still find some room For broken hearted lovers to cry away the gloom I get so lonely baby I get so lonely baby I get so lonely I could die Well the bellhop's tears keep flowing the desk clerk's dressed in black They've been so long on Lonely Street they'll never never never get back I get so lonely baby I get so lonely baby I get so lonely I could die So if your baby leaves and you got a tale to tell Just take a walk down Lonely Street to Heartbreak Hotel I get so lonely baby I get so lonely baby I get so lonely I could die Oh since my baby left me... |
