Mr Bojangles (With Prologue) - Nitty Gritty Dirt Band[00:00:00]
I knew a man bojangles[00:01:44]
And he'd dance for you [00:01:46]
In worn out shoes [00:01:50]
With silver hair a ragged shirt [00:01:53]
And baggy pants[00:01:55]
The old soft shoe [00:01:59]
He jumped so high jumped so high[00:02:03]
Then he'd lightly touch down [00:02:10]
I met him in a cell in new orleans [00:02:16]
I was down and out [00:02:19]
He looked to me to be the eyes[00:02:25]
Of age as he spoke right out[00:02:28]
He talked of life talked of life [00:02:36]
He laughed slapped his leg a step[00:02:42]
He said his name "bojangles"[00:02:49]
Then he danced a lick across the cell[00:02:50]
He grabbed his pants [00:02:58]
A better stance [00:02:59]
O he jumped so hi [00:03:00]
And he clicked his heels[00:03:03]
He let go a laugh let go a laugh [00:03:08]
Shook back his clothes all around[00:03:15]
Mr bojangles[00:03:23]
Mr bojangles[00:03:27]
Mr bojangles[00:03:32]
Dance[00:03:36]
He danced for those[00:03:40]
At minstrel shows and county fairs [00:03:41]
Throughout the south[00:03:46]
He spoke with tears of 15 years[00:03:50]
How his dog and him traveled about [00:03:52]
His dog up and died up and died [00:04:00]
After 20 years he still grieves [00:04:06]
He said i dance now at every chance[00:04:13]
In honky tonks for drinks and tips[00:04:15]
But most the time i spend[00:04:22]
Behind these county bars[00:04:24]
Cause i drinks a bit[00:04:28]
He shook his head [00:04:33]
And as he shook his head[00:04:35]
I heard someone ask him please[00:04:39]
Please[00:04:43]
Mr bojangles[00:04:47]
Mr bojangles[00:04:51]
Mr bojangles[00:04:56]
