Busted flat in Baton Rouge heading for a [E] train
Feeling nearly faded as [B] my jeans
Bobby flagged the diesel down just before it rained
Burgers all the way to [E] New Orleans
I took my harp and out of my dirty red bandana
And was a-blowing sad while Bobby [A] sang the blues
With Joey G, my first lap in time, [E] and Bobby clapping hands
We finally [B] sang up every song [E] that drive her near
[A] Freedom's just another word [E] for nothing left to lose
[B] Nothing ain't worth nothing but [E] it's free
[A] I'm a-feeling good, what easy, Lord, [E] when Bobby sang the blues
[B] And feeling good was good enough for me
Good enough for me and Bobby [E] Moogie
[B] [B] Hey Bobby Moogie, you're
[E] so big, yeah
[A]
[E]
[B] [E] Oh, from the coal mines of Kentucky to California, son
Bobby shared the secrets of my soul
Standing right beside me, Lord, at everything I've done
That night she tried to keep me from [E] the cold
Till one night near Salinas, Lord, I let her slip away
Searching for the hope I hope [A] she'll find
I trade all my tomorrow for [E] one single yesterday
[B] Holding Bobby's body [E] close to mine
[A] Freedom's just another word for [E] nothing left to lose
[B] Nothing left was all she [E] left for me
[A] I'm a-feeling good, what easy, Lord, [E] when Bobby sang the blues
[B] And feeling good was good enough for me
Good enough for me and Bobby [E] Moogie
Feeling nearly faded as [B] my jeans
Bobby flagged the diesel down just before it rained
Burgers all the way to [E] New Orleans
I took my harp and out of my dirty red bandana
And was a-blowing sad while Bobby [A] sang the blues
