Freedom is just another word for nothing left to lose.
Taken from the song Me and Bobbi McGee made famous by Janis in 1970. The song was actually written by Kris Kristofferson and Fred Foster and was originally recorded by Roger Miller in 1969.
While I agree w/ Sonny Barger in that Freedom is not just another word, when considered in the context of the song I believe it really is a word for nothing left to lose.
Ponder it.
