[intro]
death of robert( bobby) mcgee
[verse]
yes  bobby did slip away in the night
he left janis for me in the city of salinas
he hated her we had plans to meet in  santa ritas
we hitchhiked our way together in our patched jeans
(all the way up to) up all the way to castroville
where he was hit by a tractor trailer truck and killed
as i held bobbys lifeless body next to mine
whats good enough for cheating bobby
is good enough for me and dead robert mcgee

death of robert( bobby mcgee

he was  a flaming closet homosexual
yes he was 
death of robert bobby mcgee

he was a flaming closet homosexual

yes he was 

janis never knew
(Busted flat in Baton Rouge, waitin' for a train
When I was feelin' near as faded as my jeans
Bobby thumbed a diesel down, just before it rained
That rode us all the way in to New Orleans)
