Kontext: Freedom is just another word for nothing left to lose,
Nothing don’t mean nothing honey if it ain’t free...

You know feeling good was good enough for me,
Good enough for me and my Bobby McGee.

I want you to come on, come on, come on, come on and take it,
Take another little piece of my heart now, baby!”
