The original. (1970) Song 3 from the album-"Kristofferson" ~~This is for K.C.~~ "...feelin good was good enough for me..." ..........and him too apparently.... I hope you dig this one. Its special to me. More so than the popular cover versions. Janis did it well...but this one kinda makes me feel more-as much as I love Janis's version.

Performances: Apr 22 and 24

Kris Kristofferson has been making things happen his entire life. Born in Texas and raised in a military family, he was a Golden Gloves boxer who studied creative writing at Pomona College in California. The Phi Beta Kappa graduate earned a Rhodes scholarship to study literature at Oxford, where he boxed, played rugby and continued to write songs. After graduating from Oxford, Kristofferson served in the army as an Airborne Ranger helicopter pilot and achieved the rank of Captain. In 1965, Kristofferson turned down an assignment to teach at West Point and, inspired by songwriters like Willie Nelson and Johnny Cash, moved to Nashville to pursue his music.
