A woman left lonely will soon grow tired of waiting,
She'll do crazy things, yeah, on lonely occasions. A simple conversation for the new men now and again Makes a touchy situation when a good face come into your head. And when she gets lonely, she's thinking 'bout her man, She knows he's taking her for granted, yeah yeah, Honey, she doesn't understand, no no no no! Well, the fevers of the night, they burn an unloved woman Yeah, those red-hot flames try to push old love aside. A woman left lonely, she's the victim of her man, yes she is. When he can't keep up his own way, good Lord, She's got to do the best that she can, yeah! A woman left lonely, Lord, that lonely girl, Lord, Lord, Lord! |

All caught up in a landslide, bad luck
pressing in from all sides Just got knocked off of my easy ride, Buried alive in the blues Sunday morning everybody’s in bed, I’m On the street, I’m talking out of my head, This dumb brick wall ain’t heard a word That I’ve said, I’m buried alive in the blues I’m buried alive, oh yeah, in the blues I’m buried alive, somebody help me, in the blues I beg for mercy, I pray for rain, I can’t be the one to accept all this blame, Something here’s trying to pollute my brain, I’ buried alive in the blues. It’s real hard you know, it’s real hard being buried alive It’s real hard being buried alive When you’re buried alive they walk right on by you. When you’re buried alive they never care about you. When you’re buried alive, oh, you reach out for somebody, And when you’re buried alive you get can’t seem to press on through Being buried alive is a bad condition; it’s a real weird situation Being buried alive in the blues, it’s a real weird situation Being buried Being buried Being buried Being buried Being buried alive in the blues, It’s a real weird situation.

Busted flat in Baton Rouge, waiting for a train
And I's feeling nearly as faded as my jeans. Bobby thumbed a diesel down just before it rained, It rode us all the way to New Orleans. I pulled my harpoon out of my dirty red bandanna, I was playing soft while Bobby sang the blues. Windshield wipers slapping time, I was holding Bobby's hand in mine, We sang every song that driver knew. Freedom is just another word for nothing left to lose, Nothing don't mean nothing honey if it ain't free, now now. And feeling good was easy, Lord, when he sang the blues, You know feeling good was good enough for me, Good enough for me and my Bobby McGee. From the Kentucky coal mines to the California sun, Hey, Bobby shared the secrets of my soul. Through all kinds of weather, through everything that we done, Hey Bobby baby kept me from the cold. One day up near Salinas, Lord, I let him slip away, He's looking for that home and I hope he finds it, But I'd trade all of my tomorrows for one single yesterday To be holding Bobby's body next to mine. Freedom is just another word for nothing left to lose, Nothing, that's all that Bobby left me, yeah, But feeling good was easy, Lord, when he sang the blues, Hey, feeling good was good enough for me, hmm hmm, Good enough for me and my Bobby McGee.

Like a carrot baby! Like a carrot baby! Like a carrot dear! All right, daddy, take it all! I'll tell you something, man, I never expected that out of Toronto, man. You're looking real good, real good — in fact you're all invited to my house for a drink. I live in San Francisco and if you can get there man, I'll give you the drink. I promise. I ain't too hard to find, ha ha ha ha ha ... I'm all over the streets, man. Ha Ha. I'm not. A while back, it was about a year ago, I think it was, I had this apartment in San Francisco, I lived on the third floor in this little tiny apartment building, had a little two rooms and a dog, right. I lived on the third floor and I used to walk around town and I had, you know, a couple of pairs of Levis and a couple T-shirts and I thought I had my shit pretty good together, man. You know I was out on the streets talking and talking, doing all that shit, and every time I found a nice piece of talent he went right straight downstairs to the chick on the second floor, there was another chick on the second floor, right. And I couldn't understand, I couldn't understand, I kept thinking, Janis, why are you doing wrong suddenly ? Well I so decided to get up one morning, ha ha ha, and check out the chick's action, right, figure out what she had going that I didn't have going. I got up at 9:30 in the morning, which I want you to know is an effort on my part. And I got up at 9:30 in the morning, I hid in the stairwe ll right next to the chick's across from her apartment, right. And I watched her and watched to see what she had, man, that I didn't have. And I'll tell you what she had man, that chick hit the streets at noon. I mean I didn't use to get up till three. That chick was already in the street hustling, man. So I figured out what you gotta do, man. Every time you're looking for a little piece of action and you ain't getting none, man, you know what you better do, baby, you better try harder, man. |

Summertime, time, time,
Child, the living's easy. Fish are jumping out And the cotton, Lord, Cotton's high, Lord so high. Your daddy's rich And your ma is so good-looking, baby. She's a-looking good now, Hush, baby, baby, baby, baby now, No, no, no, no, no, no, no, Don't you cry, don't you cry. One of these mornings You're gonna rise, rise up singing, You're gonna spread your wings, child, And take, take to the sky, Lord, the sky. But until that morning, Honey, n-n-nothing's going to harm ya, No, no, no no, no no, no... Don't you cry — cry. |

Bye, bye-bye, baby, bye-bye.
I gotta be seeing you around When I change my living standard and I move uptown, Bye-bye, baby, bye-bye. So long, my honey, so long. Too bad you had to drift away ‘Cause I could use some company Right here on this road, on this road I’m on today. I get the feeling I could chase you clean on in the ball And wind up staying pull off, put down strung out and stalled. Honey, I ain’t got time to wait on you or to fetch your super ball, I got lots of things I’ve got to do. I know that you got things to do and places to be. I guess I’ll have to find the thing you placed on me. I may wind up in the street or sleep beneath a tree, Still I guess you know honey I’ve gotta go. Bye, bye-bye, baby, bye-bye. I guess you know you’re on your own, It seems you just got lost somewhere out in the world And you left me here to face it all alone, You left me here to face it all alone, You left me here to face it all alone, Bye, bye-bye baby, baby bye-bye! |

Like a carrot baby! Like a carrot baby! Like a carrot dear! All right, daddy, take it all! I'll tell you something, man, I never expected that out of Toronto, man. You're looking real good, real good — in fact you're all invited to my house for a drink. I live in San Francisco and if you can get there man, I'll give you the drink. I promise. I ain't too hard to find, ha ha ha ha ha ... I'm all over the streets, man. Ha Ha. I'm not. A while back, it was about a year ago, I think it was, I had this apartment in San Francisco, I lived on the third floor in this little tiny apartment building, had a little two rooms and a dog, right. I lived on the third floor and I used to walk around town and I had, you know, a couple of pairs of Levis and a couple T-shirts and I thought I had my shit pretty good together, man. You know I was out on the streets talking and talking, doing all that shit, and every time I found a nice piece of talent he went right straight downstairs to the chick on the second floor, there was another chick on the second floor, right. And I couldn't understand, I couldn't understand, I kept thinking, Janis, why are you doing wrong suddenly ? Well I so decided to get up one morning, ha ha ha, and check out the chick's action, right, figure out what she had going that I didn't have going. I got up at 9:30 in the morning, which I want you to know is an effort on my part. And I got up at 9:30 in the morning, I hid in the stairwe ll right next to the chick's across from her apartment, right. And I watched her and watched to see what she had, man, that I didn't have. And I'll tell you what she had man, that chick hit the streets at noon. I mean I didn't use to get up till three. That chick was already in the street hustling, man. So I figured out what you gotta do, man. Every time you're looking for a little piece of action and you ain't getting none, man, you know what you better do, baby, you better try harder, man. |

I get the feeling I could chase you clean on in the ball And wind up staying pull off, put down strung out and stalled. Honey, I ain’t got time to wait on you or to fetch your super ball, I got lots of things I’ve got to do. I know that you got things to do and places to be. I guess I’ll have to find the thing you placed on me. I may wind up in the street or sleep beneath a tree, Still I guess you know honey I’ve gotta go. Bye, bye-bye, baby, bye-bye. I guess you know you’re on your own, It seems you just got lost somewhere out in the world And you left me here to face it all alone, You left me here to face it all alone, You left me here to face it all alone, Bye, bye-bye baby, baby bye-bye! |
