Вот именно. Крис Кристофферсон. Тот самый, которого в кино можно увидеть. Еще в
середине 80-х в советском прокате шли с ним фильмы.

This popular song was written in 1969 by Kris Kristofferson and Fred Foster.
Kris Kristofferson is given most of the credit for writing the song , but Fred
Foster is also given co-credit because he proposed the title of the song. The
copyright is held by Combine Music Corporation. Janis was not the only one to
record Kristofferson's "Me and Bobby McGee". It was also recorded and performed
by such artists as: The Grateful Dead, Bill Haley and the Comets, Willie
Nelson, Jerrie Lee Lewis, The Mom and Dads, Gordon Lightfoot, Kris
Kristofferson and Kenny Rogers.
