Chorus:
Freedom's 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
#TheHighwaymen #MeAndBobbyMcGee #AmericanOutlaws - เพลง
Kris K is one of the best song writers and story tellers that this world will ever know
Along with Robert Hunter and Bob Dylan
Paul Simon, John Prine, Joni Mitchell…
Jerry Reed
Carol King, please...
He led a remarkable life.
We will never see anything with as much class as these 4 legends ever again❤
Every decade gives us great people. We just miss it sometimes bc its not our jam.
The best of the best.
for sure

😅
What makes them shine the most is they are real.
My wife and I were there, and it was one of best concerts that we ever attended. Thank you, Highway Men! I know that some of you have passed, but I will remember you all until my final day! God bless you all.
I wish I could have been there😭😭
Lucky sob's what a night you must've had watching these legends
I’m not jealous. I’m not jealous. I’m happy for you really. 😂😂
Congratulations on being able to see these legends perform together! I’m grateful we live in an age I can watch 40 years later.
Am so jealous you were there, what a concert!
This is real country music
The BEST!
The guy on harmonica is pretty special. Could listen to him all day long.
Mickey Rafael was Willie's brother-in-law at one rime.
He is so very very good ❤ 4:12

They are fabulous, but their backing are fantastic as well.👏👏🎶🎶
Best band
Love seeing and hearing them all together
I never realized that Kris Kristofferson wrote "Me and Bobby McGee!"
Not only that, but Kris is also a United States Army Captain, having served as a helicopter pilot and a qualified U.S. Army Ranger. A true American badass outlaw!
He wrote that about Janis Joplin. He was quite a interesting character. A Rhodes scholar, could’ve taught at West Point, and the list goes on
"From the coal mines of Kentucky to the California Sun"
What a line. And delivered with perfection!
From one side of the country to the other as well as from dark to light. Truly brilliant writing saying so much so simply
Waymore = ❤😂🎉😅😊
They are music, they have made people's lives much better with their music
FIVE legends to me...Mickey Raphael on harmonica was every bit as crucial to this wonderful collaboration of musicians. Music will never be as good as this again.
Six :) please, do count Reggie Young
Lisa Miller you got that spot on he is amazing talent
You are sure right with this comment.
You have not heard Neil Diamond's Hot August Night.
I believe this Mickey showed up playing tunes with Neil Young and Willie Nelson at a Farm Aid concert.
Look at Kris, the smile on his face as his song is being sung by some of the best musicians ever!!!
I agree, Apsco---Kris has always appreciated that his efforts were appreciated by his talented friends.
Kris is so handsome even today at his age
@@annettespencer8154gotta admit you’re right. Good looking old dude. Talented beyond belief too I personally think his voice has gotten better with age
Including himself. He’s got a great voice
@@nobodyspecial6513 ciao amico! 🙋♀️😍😘💘🍀
Yes Guys, your'right. Rockabilly, Rock and Roll, Blues and Country Music will never died. Hi from France.
I just caught a look in Chris's face that says he's thinking how did i ever wind up with these 3 COOL Dudes. .man I'm living right.
If I could go back in time to any concert ever, it would be this one. A stage full of legends having fun with their friends, singing some of the greatest songs ever penned. Blissful ❤
The greatest!
If only we could back to these times. Godbless you
Totally agree, from a Scotsman
Great.song..❤
Amen
Man what a show. We will never see its like again.
Never
Very good
I wanted to reply with something, but you already said it.👍
Can’t beat that
Watching legends
Is it fair to say that this Highwaymen concert in 1990 was one of the greatest live shows of the entire 20th century?
i just can't get enough of it. Truly as someone said, the Mount Rushmore of country.
Yes I agree and I am English. Always playing it.
Aye has to be one of the greats of all time what would we give to see them live tomorrow? Just 2 left now Willie never got the credit he deserved
Absolutely concur , he swept floors and helicopters
Kris and Willie, hang in for us.
Without a doubt my favorite boyband.
Excellent. The harmonium player is outstanding. This is my favourite bedtime song.
Not harmonium, its a chromatic harmonica. And Mickey Raphael is one of the best at it
Kris is a genius. Thank you, sir, for enriching my life.
Real folks, real music, ton of talent. Just enjoyable music, don't over think it.
Wow this rendition of Kris’s song is just the best. I’ve rewound it five times on this go-round as it’s so great. I visit this concert often as these guys are so my favorite band. They all have respect for each other and it shows, how many times do you see this in a group that’s been around for years. Lovely to watch. Makes my heart soar listening to them. Ahhhh.
Hello how are you? So sorry for the infringe on your privacy. Beautiful song
I am from Sweden but I look at this every day and love it
Me too…..every day this lifts my spirit and assures me of a great attitude for the rest of the day no matter what comes!
Wow, ONE OF THE BEST BANDS EVER, SINGING A GREAT SONG! John P.
Enjoy people, don’t think we will ever have another talent on stage as the highwaymen again !
They are just blowing my mind.. soooo goooood for my eares and the joy they are having on stage... What a fantastic gig !!!!!! Love from Norway....T...
So true 👍
The Traveling Wilbury's? It's a tough call.
You got that right!....
Absolutely never can be duplicated! The Highwaymen were special!!!❤️
The way Waylon booms "From the coalmines of Kentucky to the California Sun" is just phenomenal
Idem for Cash
You might want to give a listen to Waylon live, from 1975, it is my favorite version and Waylon is at his peak. It’s my favorite version of me and Bobby McGee.
Amazing isn't it
Thanks so much for the love ❤️ I really appreciate, I hope you will never stop listen to my music 🎶.. If you don’t mind kindly drop me your google chat just to get in touch with you
Legends. I’ll trade all my tomorrow’s for one single yesterday.
Best country group by far, I'm 22 and love these guys, Wish i could have been there to see them perform
It just doesn't get much better than this - what a great bunch of music-makers.
Janus would have loved to been on the stage with them.
the highway men need more be said. never talent like that again i had the priveldge to see them live
Four giants, no egos, amazing songs, world class band. It can't be bettered.
Well said. Love their songs. Love country music. Couldn’t be better.
Voices heaven
For those of us who grew up in the golden era of music, this provides chills and memories beyond belief. 😍😍
george jones sang "whose gonna take their place" looks like NOBODY, so sad.
they just don"T MAKE THEM LIKE THAT ANYMORE. why?
Those who were lucky enough to be part of this concert have undoubtedly got their money's worth! What a magnificent performance! And what a legacy to the fans.
R.I.P. dear Johnny, R.I.P. dear Waylon! ❤❤❤❤👍👍👍👍
Fantastic!
Yep
Oo
If ever a song told a story, this is it.
RIP Waylon and Johnny.
🇺🇸🏴
Waylon and Johnny were both of Irish heritage too 🇮🇪❤️🇺🇸❤️🏴 rip
The talent on that single stage is unreal. All icons and they'll never grow old - the music is timeless!
So very true
More talant on that stage than in today's top 40
@@alastairclunie7232 More talent there than the entire music world can muster today
What a life Kris has had! We should all be so lucky!
It's so fantastic! Songs that last forever and forever. Freedom. Very good word.
Hi Lisbeth hope you're okay?
The man on harmonica is just brilliant
That's Mickey Raphael. He's been with Willie for 47 years now and has done over 7,000 shows.
You know I always think so to.
The best I've ever seem
and he's still going strong
Hello for your comment and supports, your comments and constant support has brought me this far. Keep Supporting ❤️please send me a via.kriskristofferson6@gmail.com
If your feet are not tapping you must be dead, Greatest live concert in the history of music, will never be bettered, 4 legends together, 77 years old and priveleged to be able to listen to this concert as often as i like, thank you for this post.
Perfection, right there. Sadly, we might never see this level of excellence repeated..
Never has so much talent been on one stage!
Check out Bob Dylan’s 30 year celebration and the song My Back Page. You have McGuinn, Petty, Young, Clapton, Dylan and lastly Harrison all performing the song. Totally incredible.
Hi Judith hope you're okay?
The sheer amount of chemistry between these 4 guys and the band behind is mesmerising. Add on top of that amazing songs and a loyal fan base , you have yourself *true* legends
Yikes
Camo Keever AGREED!!
Yep! You always got the impression they had some fun secrets and were secretly laughing about them...like painting the whole motel room black !
Best Comment 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟
Agree with you Campbell Keever.
There will never be 4 Legends out these 4.
The harmonica player needs LOTS more recognition for his excellent work!!!!!!
👌👌👌
Mickey Raphael on harp!! Always the best. /CD
AGREE..Mickey sure gets it done!! Best I have ever heard!!!
ursel doran - he sure does, I am surprised he doesn’t get more attention he is in all the best Videos
Mickey Raphael has been playing the harp with Willie Nelson’s band since 1973 (7,000 shows).
Am I the only one who is worried that there is nothing close to this going forward?
No you're not, good music is more important to the world than just about anything at all and there's very little good anything left.
I'm not worried but you are probably right.
Legends on one stage. It doesn’t get better than this.
Hello dear,how are you doing today?
The backing band ar great, who ar they?
❤ NOTHING but ❤
Kris K. Former US Marine officer, Oxford scholar, left the service at his 4 years were up. His dad disowned him. Wonder if they every spoke again. He has had one hell of a career, movies and music.
Army Officer
Thank you for sharing that. I had no idea. Respect.
There are lots and lots of performers. Kris fabulous *WRITING* of his own numerous songs is a work of Genius!
Convoy made me at a young age idolise him. Class guy!!
Kris was an Army Ranger along with helicopter pilot an Capt of that unit before resigning in 1965. He wasn't in favor of the Vietnam War. A man amongst men! 💪👍😎
True legends and all geniuses. The best of the best all together.
Amen
Thanks so much for the love ❤️ I really appreciate, I hope you will never stop listen to my music 🎶.. If you don’t mind kindly drop me your google chat just to get in touch with you❤️❤️❤️
Love them, never tire of listening to the highwaymen.
Real music played by proper men! Surely a bit of a novelty in these strange times. Roll it guys!
Mark my words folks. There will never be another era in country music with the talent gathered on one stage than that of the American Outlaws!
My mom in law had never been 2 a concert and Itiok her k. Roger's was there too and she came just as they were escorting him 2 the stage
@@roxanedavis957 great country music love it
The musicians of today would not lace the shoes of that gang they were perfection at its best 👌👌🇨🇮🇨🇮
Is the best of the free life behind us now, and are the good times really over for good? Stop rolling downhill with the democrats heading for hell, let's all reelect President Trump and ring the Liberty bell, let's make a ford and a Chevy run on Affordable American oil like they should
❤️❤️🏴🏴
Now, that’s what I call performers. Never to be repeated I’m afraid. Brilliant. 👍☘️
Why the shamrock
@@gogleaccount2763 Why not. I’m Irish, we are big fans of all things the Highway men.

I am old very old, been bombed,shot at, poor surroundings but always loved music. Big bands,rock n roll Beatles, me. Modern, Country. But these four are something else. Never tire of listening, watching,(thanks tomofrrn technology)They are the best in my lifetime. Thank you Highwaymen.God bless you all.
More talent than we will ever see again
very god fas ist zeia gote
This is one of my very favorite songs, the music the poetry fantistic. Special note for Willy Nelsons great gitar solo.
Kris , Waylon , Johnny and Willie ! Four giants ! So good to see them smile, they're so happy to sing together and this song is wonderful.
Marty needs to be on that stage. Too bad he died in 1982. He was the most talented out of all those incredible musicians. Johnny and Marty were real close friends.
Doesn't Waylon have a lovely voice. I don't think I ever noticed that before.
@tomtolbert32 l
Don't forget Reggie Young in the back playing all those beautiful fills on a guitar.
Thanks for your wonderful comments, I really do appreciate you as a super fan and this is my own way of saying I love you guys, this is my chat mail. Send me a message via: privatekriskristoffesoncomm@gmail.com
No words can describe the talent. You can feel the love and respect they had for each other

Country music, wonderful singer's

All great friends to-gether.
Saw Chris do tribute to Johnny, could see it hurt him.
Thank you.x x 🕊🕊🕊🕊🎸🎸🎸🎸
Perhaps the greatest show on earth.
Imagine actually being there..we will never see again in our lifetime, such an amazingly talented group creating such synergy...wow !!
The fucking best brother...
Massive love for the band and all the crew that put this together. The truck drivers, the riggers , the carpenters, sound engineers etc. A lot of people work really hard and spend basically all their time making an excellent show just for us.
Thanks so much for the love ❤️ I really appreciate, I hope you will never stop listen to my music 🎶.. If you don’t mind kindly drop me your google chat just to get in touch with you❤️❤️❤️
I agree

I have never gotten tired of loving
You Kris or your music
Dont forget the impresarios without whom none of the previously mentioned workers would be doin didly squat
This is a legend in country music with four big country musicians!! Love this forever! Love you Kris!!
I keep coming back to their music and song because it is the best
Hey how are you doing…?😊
I Wish i could turn back time, just to hear them live one time.
Same here.
@Oscar Hester look at it this way Oscar, what you are seeing and listening to will forever live in TH-cam and can be listened to again and again.
Anita Veka I wasn’t even born 😭
I got to see them all in concert.
I'd have give both my right and left 🤔.. nut (😲your what !?..lol ) to have seen them live ... but was in the Navy in Japan when they toured 😞
I never realized how great this song was until I heard this version.
I am an old Englishman and my God, how I wish that I had been at this concert. Legends giving everyone the best of themselves. What a night that was for those who were there.
We were fortunate to see their show in the 90`s,the biggest roar from the crowd was when Johnny was introduced, then unexpectedly June came out to join her husband.Unforgettable show.
Four stars,four legends🌟🌟🌟🌟🎸🎶
There will never be 4 another like them
My respect for all on this stage
Great❤
R.I.P. W&J
Who are they as i only know Willie and Jonie

There will never be this many superstars of country music in their own rights assembled on the same stage! Damn I wish I was a teenager in this era so I could go to all these concerts! 🙌🏾🤩
Some us weren't teenagers
Me too
A great job by everybody and i can't get over how good Willie's guitar sounds. I see why he hangs on to it.

In my heart. They are what true music is about.

These 'Legends of Music' will forever live on as four of the greatest. Don't think there will another like them.
The best of the best, unbelievable how good the highway man were. Never will happen again.
The name is "Highwaymen" NOT as you have written here.
@@ndhan72 absolut Lindsay. Best Regards from Germany 💪
There just are no words - takes me back so many years, and puts a hurt in my heart that those days are past. Huge lump in my throat - tears slippin'. I SO wish I could go back, just for a little while.
Jeannie, you just did go back. Just for a minute.
Jeannie Carle I’m with ya on that ! With a tear in my eye and thinking back !
Great guys
Sometimes I look in the mirror and this beat up old man is looking back. Not too many tomorrows left, but I'd trade a few for one good yesterday
A perfect performance from a perfect group. In my opinion, this is the best vesion of Me and Bobbie Mc gee
Defo is
Your damn right it is my guy
Absolutely excellent. But I like the original 1971 version by Janis even better. Classic timeless talent….thx for the memories & the music.
@@wmmad5777 Janis Joplin isn't the original version. Me and bobby McGee was written by Kris Kristofferson
@@markfoody3742 yep. Kris & FredFoster co-wrote the song. Kris & Janis were an “item” back then. She recorded his song just few months before she died. Kris was still flying copters out to oil rigs. He didnt know about her recording until after she was gone.
Can't forget the backing music too the band,brilliant too.
Thank you all.lol
🌹🎸🌹🎸🌹🎸🌹🎸🌹🎸🌹🎸 x x x x
This is absolutely the best version of this great song, they were magnificent.
After all Kris wrote the song!!! What a talent!!!!
@Mark Honey I am well, thank you.
@Mark Honey Canada.
@Mark Honey I have been to a couple of states only and I like it very much.
@Mark Honey No divorced, no kids
Can't believe this was thirty-two years ago! All-time classic odes sound like just from yesterday no matter when they were played.
Four people enjoying playing, entertaining and each others company, no egos getting in the way, good times and great music. Where did these times go?
amen
Probably buried under a pile of bad music
These times are gone forever, except on replay. It’s snowflakes from here on out, ha ha! Get used to canned country music, or better yet, flip back to the past.
I couldn’t of said it any better.
These guys would be Patriots singing for President Trump if they were alive together.
From a Retired old Pastor from Australia
To heaven and they will stay there😁
Absolutely awesome.
The best of the best singing one of the best songs ever written
Best artists on one stage-Waylon, Willie, Johnny, Kris & Mickey!! Thank you for the memories!!
That's why Trump can't sing just talks bullshit, bone spurs is his sorry song.
Thanks for adding Mickey to your cudos!
Что-то из области фантастики, больше не будет такого
I am in the hospital just coming out of major invasive foot surgery . Very painful and listening to your rendition helps me endure the pain. I am 73 yoa and things like this not as easy to endure. Ian would be proud.
I always keep going back for more!! Incredible concert. Amazing musicians all!!
The best version of one of the greatest songs ever written performed by 4 legends and an amazing backing band 🎶🎼🎶🎼🎼 to quote Kris "Keep the faith" 🏴
I play this at least once a week.
Amazing to watch how Willie hits off beat by a quarter, when the group is strumming he is doing very little. When the say "Willie" he nails it his way. Very awesome seeing these greats together.
Live forever, from Africa, 👍
These Highwaymen taught me what kind of man is a real Man . Thank you Willie, Wayland, Chris & of course Johnny. Real men tell good stories and have great hearts 💕.
Hello dear,how are you doing today,how is the weather?
I just love the smile on Kris' face all the way through! Johhmy Cash' voice compliments Kris' so well!
Yeah he's absolutely loving it !!!!!
I never knew a harmonica could sound so beautiful until that intro
Einfach wundervoll.Wenn ich Country Musik höre geht es mir gut.und ich vergesse alle Sorgen.Vielen Dank ❤❤❤❤❤❤
Отличная работа, вот пример прекрасно отлаженного организма, ничего лишнего, ни одной фальшивки, низкий поклон.
Brilliant concert with four legends and a great band
God bless Bobbie, whoever she was, that these four giants of music,, sang their hearts out, in homage to her. Something happened on this stage not so very long ago. Life. And art. Joined hands to give us a performance like this. It's good to be alive still to hear, and see this incandescent performance. Again, God bless Bobbie!
I believe that the famous Bobby McGee of song was a man. Who disagrees?
@@Grisbi6 The name came from Barbara „Bobby“ McKee, the secretary of country singer Boudleaux Bryant, but Kris misunderstood her surname and made it Mcgee.
But asBobby can be a womans or mans name, the sond is can be sung by women and men. See en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Me_and_Bobby_McGee#History
