Janis Joplin (love you)
She came, she sang, she sailed away
I never will forget Janice Joplin
her songs give my heart a pang
I will never forget how brave
Stood in her ruins she still sang
No other place loved you best
When you stood in the Albert Hall
I really came alive that night
I was totally enthralled
I saw you again in San Francisco
I was standing perpendicular
On lower Market Street
I was waiting for a cable car
We climbed together up Nob Hill
I remember it was getting dark
You sang about Bobby MaGee
To patrons at the top of the Mark
I heard the sad news in London
Janice Joplin is dead
I felt my soul dropping
Couldn’t get it through my head
I came to see you leave us Janice
You sailed out of reach
We did everything you wanted
Let you go from Stinson Beach
