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 |

Take the ribbon from my hair Shake it loose and let it fall Lay it soft against your skin Like the shadows on the wall Come and lay down by my side Till the early morning light All I'm takin' is your time Help me make it through the night I don't care who's right or wrong I don't try to understand Let the devil take tomorrow Lord, tonight I need a friend Yesterday is dead and gone And tomorrow's out of sight And it's sad to be alone Help me make it through the night And it's sad to be alone Help me make it through the night I don't wanna be alone Help me make it through the night |

Why me Lord, what have I ever done
To deserve even one Of the pleasures I've known Tell me Lord, what did I ever do That was worth loving you Or the kindness you've shown. Lord help me Jesus, I've wasted it so Help me Jesus I know what I am Now that I know that I've need you so Help me Jesus, my soul's in your hand. Tell me Lord, if you think there's a way I can try to repay All I've taken from you Maybe Lord, I can show someone else What I've been through myself On my way back to you. Lord help me Jesus, I've wasted it so Help me Jesus I know what I am Now that I know that I've need you so Help me Jesus, my soul's in your hand. |

Don't look so sad I know it's over
But life goes on and this old world will keep on turning Let's just be glad we had some time to spend together There's no need to watch the bridges that were burning Lay your head upon my pillow hold your warm and tender body close to mine Hear the whisper of the raindrops blowing soft against the window And make believe you love me one more time for the good times I'll get along you'll find another I'll be here if you should find you ever need me Don't say a word about tomorrow or forever There'll be time enough for sadness when you leave me Lay your head upon my pillow... |

If you're feeling salty, then I'm your tequila
If you've got the freedom I've got the time There ain't nothing sweeter than naked emotions So you show me yours, hon, and I'll show you mine No ma'm I know this ain't all that you've ever been used to You with your rings on your fingers and time on your hands Sometimes it's nice to have somebody nice to be close to God knows I've been there before you and I understand I wish that I was the answer to all of your questions God knows I know you wish you were the answer to mine Darling if you ain't a thing but a change in direction Lord don't you know you'd be somethin' I'm lucky to find I wish that I was the answer to all of your questions God knows I know you wish you were the answer to mine Darling if you ain't a thing but a change in direction Lord don't you know you'd be somethin' I'm lucky to find So you show me yours and I'll show you mine. |

I have seen the morning burning golden on the mountain in the skies
Aching with the feeling of the freedom of an eagle as she flies Turning on the world the way you smiled upon my soul as I lay dying And healing as the colors in the sunshine and the shadows of your eyes Waking in the morning to the feeling of your fingers on my skin Wiping out the traces of the people and the places that I've been Teaching me that yesterday was something that I never thought of trying Talking of tomorrow and the money love and time we have to spend Loving you is easier than anything I'll ever do again Coming close together with a feeling that I've never known before in my time You ain't ashamed to be a woman you know just gotta be a friend I don't know the answers to the easy way you opened every door in my mind Dreaming is as easy as believing it's never gonna end Loving you is easier than anything I'll ever do again Loving you is easier than anything I'll ever do again |

This could be our last goodnight together
We may never pass this way again Just let me enjoy 'till its over Or forever Please don't tell me how the story ends See the way our shadows come together Softer than your fingers on my skin Someday this may be all That we'll remember Of each other Please don't tell me how the story ends Never's just the echo of forever Lonesome as the love that might have been Just let me go on loving and believing 'Till it's over Please don't tell me how the story ends Please don't tell me how the story ends |
