Mr Bojangles - Neil Diamond[00:00:00]
I knew a man[00:00:11]
Bojangles and he danced for you[00:00:12]
In worn out shoes[00:00:18]
Silver hair a ragged shirt and baggy pants[00:00:21]
The old soft shoe[00:00:28]
He jumped so high jumped so high[00:00:34]
Then he'd lightly touch down[00:00:41]
I met him in a cell in New Orleans[00:00:48]
He was down and out[00:00:52]
He looked to me to be the eyes of age[00:00:59]
As he spoke right out[00:01:05]
He talked of life he talked of life[00:01:11]
He laughed slapped his leg and stepped[00:01:19]
Mr Bojangles[00:01:27]
Mr Bojangles[00:01:32]
Mr Bojangles dance[00:01:38]
He said his name[00:01:47]
Bojangles and he danced a lick[00:01:48]
Across the cell[00:01:54]
He grabbed his pants a better stance[00:01:58]
And jumped so high clicked his heels[00:02:00]
He let go a laugh Let go a laugh[00:02:10]
Shook back his clothes all around[00:02:17]
He danced for those in minstrel shows[00:02:25]
And county fairs[00:02:27]
Throughout the south[00:02:31]
He spoke with tears of fifteen years[00:02:35]
How his dog and he traveled about[00:02:38]
His dog up and died he up and died[00:02:47]
After twenty years he still grieves[00:02:55]
Mr Bojangles[00:03:03]
Mr Bojangles[00:03:09]
Mr Bojangles dance[00:03:14]
He said I dance now[00:03:23]
At every chance in honky tonks[00:03:25]
For drinks and tips[00:03:30]
But most the time[00:03:34]
I spend behind these county bars[00:03:35]
Cause I drinks a bit[00:03:41]
He shook his head[00:03:46]
And as he shook his head[00:03:49]
I heard someone ask please[00:03:54]
Mr Bojangles[00:04:02]
Mr Bojangles[00:04:07]
Mr Bojangles[00:04:13]
Go on and dance[00:04:17]
