Me and Bobby McGee (1969) Freedom's just another word for nothing left to loseNothing ain't worth nothing but it's free Kristofferson (1970) Freedom's just another word for nothing left to lose.. And nothing ain't worth nothing but it's free.. Me and Bobby McGee, written by Kris Kristofferson and Fred Foster I don't care what's right or wrong, I don't try to understand, Let the devil take tomorrow, Lord tonight I need a friend. Help Me Make It Through the Night Lay your head upon my pillowHold your warm and tender bodyClose to mineHear the whisper of the raindropsBlow softly against my windowMake believe you love meOne more timeFor the good timesFor the good times.. For the Good Times And the beer I had for breakfast wasn't badSo I had one more for dessertThen I fumbled through my closet for my clothesAnd found my cleanest dirty shirt.. Sunday Morning Comin' Down The Silver Tongued Devil and I (1971) Comin' close together with a feelin' that I've never known before, in my time.She ain't ashamed to be a woman, or afraid to be a friend.I don't know the answer to the easy way she opened every door in my mind.But dreamin' was as easy as believin' it was never gonna end.<p>And lovin' her was easier than anything I'll ever do again. Lovin' Her Was Easier (Than Anything I'll Ever Do Again) He's a poet, he's a picker--He's a prophet, he's a pusher--He's a pilgrim and a preacher, and a problem when he's stoned--He's a walkin' contradiction, partly truth and partly fiction,Takin' ev'ry wrong direction on his lonely way back home. The Pilgrim, Chapter 33 Jesus Was a Capricorn (1972) Make believin in foreverIs just a lie.And it seems a little sadderEach time we try.'Cause it's a shame to makeThe same mistakes again,And again.It's over.Nobody wins. Nobody Wins Why me Lord? What have I ever doneTo deserve even one of the pleasures I've known?Tell me Lord what did I ever doThat was worth loving you or the kindness you've shown? Why Me Easter Island (1978) He said, we'll take us into town, lay our money downI'll bring you the sweetest thing that growsBecause the fairest ones in sight are bloomin every nightAt a tavern called the Sabre and the Rose.. Sabre and the Rose right|thumb|Be who you arejust as long as you can... Closer to the Bone (2009) In a piece of my mind the world can't eraseI remember the time and the look on your faceAnd I will 'till the wind blows the stars from the sky'cause the road never ends and the soul never diesBe who you arejust as long as you canKnow in your heart I'm still your manHeadin for homestarlight and stone..
