'Cannot apply count() or collecr() on RDD from textfile(Spark)

I am new at Spark and I have Databricks Community Edition account. Right now I'm doing Lab and encountered with following error:

!rm README.md* -f 
!wget https://raw.githubusercontent.com/carloapp2/SparkPOT/master/README.md

textfile_rdd = sc.textFile("README.md")
textfile_rdd.count()

Output:

IllegalArgumentException: Path must be absolute: dbfs:/../dbfs/README.md
