“Why me Lord? What have I ever done
To deserve even one of the pleasures I've known?
Tell me Lord what did I ever do
That was worth loving you or the kindness you've shown?”

Help Me Make It Through the Night
Song lyrics, Kristofferson (1970)

“In a piece of my mind the world can't erase
I remember the time and the look on your face
And I will 'till the wind blows the stars from the sky
'cause the road never ends and the soul never dies
Be who you are
just as long as you can
Know in your heart I'm still your man
Headin for home
starlight and stone..”

Song lyrics, Me and Bobby McGee (1969)
Variante: Freedom's just another word for nothing left to lose
Nothing ain't worth nothing but it's free

“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.And lovin' her was easier than anything I'll ever do again.”

Lovin' Her Was Easier (Than Anything I'll Ever Do Again)
Song lyrics, The Silver Tongued Devil and I (1971)

“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.”

Song lyrics, Me and Bobby McGee (1969)

“Lay your head upon my pillow
Hold your warm and tender body
Close to mine
Hear the whisper of the raindrops
Blow softly against my window
Make believe you love me
One more time
For the good times
For the good times..”

For the Good Times
Song lyrics, Kristofferson (1970)

“He said, we'll take us into town, lay our money down
I'll bring you the sweetest thing that grows
Because the fairest ones in sight are bloomin every night
At a tavern called the Sabre and the Rose..”

Sabre and the Rose
Song lyrics, Easter Island (1978)

“And the beer I had for breakfast wasn't bad
So I had one more for dessert
Then I fumbled through my closet for my clothes
And found my cleanest dirty shirt..”

Sunday Morning Comin' Down
Song lyrics, Kristofferson (1970)

“Make believin in forever
Is just a lie.
And it seems a little sadder
Each time we try.
'Cause it's a shame to make
The same mistakes again,
And again.
It's over.
Nobody wins.”
