Mr. Bojangles - Nitty Gritty Dirt Band[00:00:00]

Written by：Jerry Jeff Walker[00:00:01]

Producer：William E. McEuen[00:00:03]

I knew a man Bojangles and he'd dance for you[00:00:04]

In worn out shoes[00:00:10]

Silver hair a ragged shirt and baggy pants[00:00:14]

The old soft shoe[00:00:19]

He jumped so high jumped so high[00:00:24]

Then he'd lightly touch down[00:00:31]

I met him in a cell in New Orleans[00:00:37]

I was down and out[00:00:39]

He looked to me to be the eyes of age[00:00:46]

As he spoke right out[00:00:52]

He talked of life talked of life he laughed[00:00:57]

Slapped his leg a step[00:01:04]

He said his name Bojangles[00:01:10]

Then he danced a lick across the cell[00:01:11]

He grabbed his pants a better stance[00:01:19]

O he jumped so high he clicked his heels[00:01:21]

He let go a laugh let go a laugh[00:01:29]

Shook back his clothes all around[00:01:36]

Mr. Bojangles[00:01:44]

Mr. Bojangles[00:01:48]

Mr. Bojangles[00:01:53]

Dance[00:01:57]

He danced for those at minstrel shows and county fairs[00:02:01]

Throughout the south[00:02:07]

He spoke through tears of fifteen years how his dog and him[00:02:11]

Traveled about[00:02:17]

The dog up and died he up and died[00:02:21]

After twenty years he still grieves[00:02:28]

He said I dance now at every chance in honky tonks[00:02:34]

For drinks and tips[00:02:40]

But most the time I spend behind these county bars[00:02:44]

'Cause I drinks a bit[00:02:49]

He shook his head and as he shook his head[00:02:54]

I heard someone ask him please please[00:03:01]

Mr. Bojangles[00:03:09]

Mr. Bojangles[00:03:13]

Mr. Bojangles[00:03:18]

Dance[00:03:22]
