Lyrics:
Freedom's just another word for nothing left to lose
Nothing, I mean nothing, honey if it isn't free, no no
Yeah 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
#JanisJoplin #MeandBobbyMcGee #Pearl

I remember when Janis Joplin died. I was 10 years old at the time and really did not know who she was. But this song, Me and Bobby McGee was playing all over at the time of her passing and you could see from the atmosphere of the public that a very dark shadow of sadness was placed. Only someone important and loved can do this. I did not understand this at the time, but I understand now.

I still wonder if she just had enough and walked away. I was in Mussissippi and there was a singer there in a luttle hole in the wall bar that looked and sounded just like her. It was about 2 years after the said she died. Jimi Hendrix also wrote in one of hos album covers that hed like to disappear and go where no one knows who he is. No one saw Jimi's body leave that hotel.

@nnettesonjsjesse9733: "but I understand now." Not all of it, there's more. Songs are often "messengers" for what is going to come. annette, look at all the anger and violence going on in America. Mass shootings 5899 since 2013, 132 suicides in 2021 and 135 in 2022 and that number is slowly creeping up. Every revolution in history was preceded with anger, Janus Joplin was an "empath" expressing what she was feeling from the nation and the world. This song will be become an "anthem" of the coming revolution in America. The best is yet to come. Be well be informed be free. I'm almost 80. There were 3 kinds of people in the 1960's. Those who knew what is going on. those who didn't, and those that looked like sheep and said "what's happening." I was number three. I came from an abused family, I was in a constant state of what's happening. After camping in the wilderness ( just half-mile east of Glacier National Park at 5700 ft for 30 days at a time for 15 years) I became enlightened, and still working every day to get better and better... it never ends. Once one gets on that path it becomes a life-long quest to know more and more and... Remember this song annette. When the revolution comes your nostalgia will be others crying for freedom.

The build up in this song is amazing. Starts out as a sweet love song, and then the emotion over takes the entire piece. Each and every syllable out of her mouth has more power emotion and soul in it than the entirety of music put out today. Just the lahdidahdahs, all alone is a better piece of music than we will probably ever get again.... ❤ Raw, and shredded just like her heart was. If you've had a rough enough life, you'll end up both laughing and crying while singing along sometimes.... This is an absolute masterpiece. The band, the vocals, the timing, and unfortunately the drugs that led her to death. All of it. Tragically Beautifully Haunting.

@@stillwaters7730 In case you haven't noticed her songs like most other famous singers are based them off of the predetermined systematic response to life and death. Meaning their songs have not motivated people or inspired them in any manner to prevent school mass shootings or any other form of abuse and neglect that today's Americans are being born into 24 seven all year long. So it's not so much losing your mind as in never having one that is capable of consciously acknowledging and physically participating in aspects of life that don't result in school mass shootings or any of the other forms of abuse or neglect that American children are dealing with today versus when the singer was first born.

I once made a list of performing artists who belong in the same pantheon together, and Janis Joplin is in that list. Many popular singers had better singing voices than some or maybe even all in the list, but these particular artists had the gift of making you FEEL what they were singing about, through and through, like no one else ever could. Let me see if I can make the list again, off the top of my head (in no particular order): Aretha Franklin Ella Fitzgerald Hank Williams (Sr.) Johnny Cash Frank Sinatra Elvis Presley Roy Orbison Judy Garland Patsy Cline Otis Redding Louis Armstrong Al Jolson (listen to his recorded songs and keep it in a separate compartment from his now-frowned upon blackface shtick!) And last, but not least: Janice Joplin!

Such a classic, this one. Janis recorded this legendary Kris Kristofferson comp only days before her death. She not only sang the song, but she played acoustic guitar on it too.

Does it break your heart that 50 years ago America did not have more school mass shootings and every other country in the world. Does it break your heart that 50 years ago America did not have the highest violent crime rate drug and alcohol dependency problem in the world at the same time the lowest standards of quality pertaining to our air water food landscapes working living environment. Does it break your heart that there is an American being born every hour upon the hour of every day all year long somewhere here in America addicted to drugs or alcohol even both. How well do you think it is to begin life having withdrawal symptoms prior to your nervous system even being fully developed. Because doctors don't have an effective method of treatment for adults that are suffering from withdrawal symptoms so that means they have nothing for those who begin life with withdrawal symptoms which is far worse because the nervous system has not been fully developed the respiratory system not fully developed so forth and so on. In other words you should not let your heart break two pieces before you understood how bad American children have it today compared to 50 years ago.

LYRICS Busted flat in Baton Rouge, waitin' for a train When I's feelin' near as faded as my jeans Bobby thumbed a diesel down, just before it rained And rode us all the way into New Orleans I pulled my harpoon out of my dirty red bandana I's playin' soft while Bobby sang the blues Windshield wipers slappin' time, I's holdin' Bobby's hand in mine We sang every song that driver knew Freedom is just another word for nothin' left to lose Nothin', don't mean nothin' hon' if it ain't free, no-no And feelin' good was easy, Lord, when he sang the blues You know feelin' good was good enough for me Good enough for me and my Bobby McGee From the Kentucky coal mine to the California sun There Bobby shared the secrets of my soul Through all kinds of weather, through everything we done Yeah, Bobby baby, kept me from the cold One day up near Salinas, Lord, I let him slip away He's lookin' for that home, and I hope he finds it But, I'd trade all of my tomorrows, for one single yesterday To be holdin' Bobby's body next to mine Freedom is just another word for nothin' left to lose Nothin', and that's all that Bobby left me, yeah But feelin' good was easy, Lord, when he sang the blues That feelin' good was good enough for me, mmm-hmm Good enough for me and my Bobby McGee La-da-da, la-da-da-da, la-da-da-da-da-da-da La-da-da-da-da-da-da-da, Bobby McGee, yeah La-da-da-da-da, la-da-da-da-da La, la-la-la-da-da- Bobby McGee, oh yeah La-da-da, la-da-da, la, da-da, la, da-da La-da-da, la-da-da, la-di-da Hey now, Bobby now, now Bobby McGee, yeah Lord, oh Lord, oh Lord, lo-da-da, na-na-na, na-na-na, na-na-na Hey now, Bobby now, now Bobby McGee, yeah Well, I wanna call him my lover, call him my man I said, I call him my lover, did the best I can, come on Hey now, Bobby now, hey now Bobby McGee, yeah Lord, a Lord, a Lord, a Lord, a Lord, a Lord, a Lord, a Lord, oh Hey-hey-hey, Bobby McGee, Lord

Growing up in those times so many artists drank heavy and did heroin. Rock was a hard and fast life and many died. Janis was no exception. She'd come out on stage with her bottle of Jack. Most of her bandmates and herself were doing heroin. It amazes me that they produced the music they did in that lifestyle. Very sad as we lost many great artists and IMHO there will never be another Janis. Her unique voice and lyrics are simply unique to her...

Yeah I think about this sometimes but then I also remember the artist that lived a really long time and not done much after their Prime. I mean he'll I remember listening to Chubby Checker in a radio interview in the early 2000s, Little Richard was pretty much irrelevant for his last 20 or 30 years. Hell for all we know this woman would have turned into a Barbra Streisand has been that does a casino tour every now and then to refill the bank. As it sits I like to think of it this way enjoy the art that they created and appreciate the fact that they left in their Prime and spared you their fall
