Mr Bojangles (Remaster) - Nina Simone[00:00:00]
I knew a man Bojangles[00:00:01]
And he danced for you[00:00:04]
In worn out shoes[00:00:08]
With silver hair a ragged shirt[00:00:14]
And baggy pants the old soft shoe[00:00:16]
He jumped so high he jumped so high[00:00:27]
Then he lightly touched down[00:00:36]
I met him in a cell in New Orleans[00:00:45]
I was down and out[00:00:48]
He looked at me to be the eyes of age[00:00:58]
As he spoke right out[00:01:04]
He talked of life he talked of life[00:01:11]
He laughed slapped his leg stepa[00:01:19]
Mr Bojangles Mr Bojangles[00:01:29]
Mr Bojangles dance[00:01:42]
He said his name Bojangles[00:01:54]
And he danced a lick across the cell[00:01:57]
He grabbed his pants in fettered stance[00:02:07]
Oh he jumped up high[00:02:10]
Then he clicked his heels[00:02:15]
He let go a laugh he let go a laugh[00:02:21]
Set up shook back his clothes all around[00:02:29]
He danced for those[00:02:39]
At minstrel shows and county fairs[00:02:41]
Throughout the south[00:02:46]
He spoke with tears of 15 years[00:02:51]
How his dog and him traveled about[00:02:55]
His dog up and died he up and died[00:03:05]
After 20 years he still grieves[00:03:14]
Mr Bojangles Mr Bojangles[00:03:22]
Mr Bojangles dance[00:03:35]
He said I dance now[00:03:50]
At every chance in honky tonks[00:03:52]
For drink and some tips[00:03:57]
But most of the time[00:04:04]
I spend behind these county bars[00:04:05]
'Cause I drinks a bit[00:04:09]
He shook his head[00:04:17]
And as he shook his head[00:04:20]
I heard someone with bless ask him please[00:04:24]
Mr Bojangles Mr Bojangles[00:04:34]
Mr Bojangles dance[00:04:46]
