Busted flat in Baton Rouge
Heading for the trains
Feeling nearly faded as [G] my jeans
Bobby thumbed the diesel down
Just before it rained, took us all away to New [C] Orleans
I took my harpoon out of my dirty red bandana
And was blowing sad while Bobby sang [F] the blues
With a windshield wiper [Am] slapping,
[C] mommy clapping hands
We [G] finally sung up every song that [C] driver knew
[F] Freedom's just another word [C] for nothing left to lose
[G] Nothing ain't worth nothing, but [F] it's easy, Lord, [C] when Bobby sang the blues
[G] Buddy, that was good enough for me, good enough for me and Bobby [C] McGee
From the coal mines of Kentucky to the California sun
Bobby shared the secrets of [G] my soul
Standing right beside me, Lord, through everything I done
And every night he kept me from the cold
[C]
Then somewhere near Selena's Lord, I let him slip away
Looking for the home I hope [F] you'll find
And I'd trade all my tomorrows for [C] a single yesterday
[G] Holding Bobby's body next [C] to mine
[F] Freedom's just another word [C] for nothing left to lose
[G] Nothing left is all he left [C] for me
[F] Feeling good was easy, Lord, [C] when Bobby sang the blues
[G] Buddy, that was good enough for me, good enough for me and Bobby [C] McGee
La-da-da-da -da, la-da-da-da-da
Good enough for me and Bobby
