Song lyrics
All songs written by Kris Kristofferson except as noted.

(1969)

 * Freedom's just another word for nothing left to lose Nothing ain't worth nothing but it's free

Kristofferson (1970)

 * Freedom's just another word for nothing left to lose.. And nothing ain't worth nothing but it's free..
 * Me and Bobby McGee, written by Kris Kristofferson and Fred Foster


 * I don't care what's right or wrong, I don't try to understand, Let the devil take tomorrow, Lord tonight I need a friend.
 * Help Me Make It Through the Night


 * 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


 * 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

The Silver Tongued Devil and I (1971)

 * 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)


 * 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.
 * The Pilgrim, Chapter 33

Jesus Was a Capricorn (1972)

 * 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.
 * Nobody Wins


 * 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?
 * Why Me

Easter Island (1978)

 * 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

Closer to the Bone (2009)

 * 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..
 * Starlight and Stone
