Mr. Bojangles - Jerry Jeff Walker (杰里·杰夫·沃克)/Jimmy Buffett[00:00:00]
Written by:Jerry Jeff Walker[00:00:01]
I knew a man Bojangles and he danced for you[00:00:13]
In worn out shoes[00:00:19]
Silver hair a ragged shirt and baggy pants[00:00:22]
The old soft shoe[00:00:27]
He jumped so high[00:00:32]
He jumped so high[00:00:34]
Then he'd lightly touched down[00:00:38]
He's Mr. Bojangles[00:00:44]
Mr. Bojangles[00:00:49]
He's Mr. Bojangles[00:00:53]
He can dance[00:00:56]
I met him in a cell in New Orleans I was[00:01:01]
Down and out[00:01:07]
He looked to me to be the eyes of age[00:01:10]
As he spoke right out[00:01:14]
He talked of life[00:01:19]
He talked of life[00:01:22]
He lightly slapped his leg instead[00:01:26]
He said the name Bojangles and he danced a lick[00:01:31]
Across the cell[00:01:36]
He grabbed his pants for a better stance[00:01:40]
He jumped up high[00:01:41]
He clicked his heels[00:01:45]
He let go a laugh[00:01:49]
He let go a laugh[00:01:52]
Shook back his clothes all around[00:01:55]
Mr. Bojangles[00:02:02]
Mr. Bojangles[00:02:07]
Mr. Bojangles[00:02:11]
Cause I can Dance[00:02:13]
We danced for those at minstrel shows and county fairs[00:02:18]
Through out the south[00:02:23]
We spoke in tears of fifteen years[00:02:27]
How his dog and him[00:02:29]
They travelled about[00:02:32]
His dog up and died[00:02:36]
He up and died[00:02:39]
After twenty years he still grieves[00:02:42]
They said[00:02:48]
I dance now at every chance and honky tonks[00:02:48]
For drinks and tips[00:02:53]
But most the time I spend behind these county bars[00:02:56]
Cause I drinks a bit[00:03:01]
He shook his head and as he shook his head[00:03:06]
I heard someone ask please[00:03:12]
Mr. Bojangles[00:03:19]
Mr. Bojangles[00:03:23]
Come Mr. Bojangles[00:03:27]
Dance[00:03:30]
I knew a man Bojangles and just danced for you[00:04:00]
