Mr Bojangles - Harry Nilsson[00:00:00]
I knew a man[00:00:05]
Bojangles[00:00:06]
And he'd dance for you[00:00:07]
In worn out shoes[00:00:10]
With silver hair[00:00:14]
A ragged shirt[00:00:14]
And baggy pants[00:00:16]
The old soft shoe[00:00:19]
Jump so high[00:00:24]
Jump so high[00:00:26]
Then he'd lightly touch down[00:00:30]
I met him in a cell[00:00:36]
In New Orleans[00:00:38]
I was down and out[00:00:41]
He looked to me to be the very eyes of age[00:00:45]
As he spoke right out[00:00:50]
Talked of life talked of life[00:00:55]
Laughed slapped his leg and stepped[00:01:01]
He said the name Bojangles[00:01:07]
And he danced a lick[00:01:09]
Across the cell[00:01:12]
Grabbed his pants[00:01:16]
A better stance[00:01:17]
And wow he jumped up high[00:01:17]
Clicked his heels[00:01:21]
He let go a laugh[00:01:22]
Let go a laugh[00:01:28]
Shook back his clothes all around[00:01:31]
Mr Bojangles[00:01:39]
Mr Bojangles[00:01:43]
Mr Bojangles[00:01:47]
Dance[00:01:51]
He danced with those at minstrel[00:01:55]
Shows county fairs[00:01:57]
Throughout The South[00:02:00]
He spoke with tears[00:02:04]
Of fifteen years[00:02:05]
Of how his dog and him[00:02:06]
Had traveled about[00:02:09]
His dog up and died[00:02:13]
He up and died[00:02:16]
After twenty years he still greives[00:02:19]
He said I dance[00:02:25]
Now and every chance at[00:02:26]
Honkey-tonks[00:02:28]
For drinks and tips[00:02:31]
But most of time[00:02:34]
I spend behind these country bars[00:02:35]
Cause I drinks a bit[00:02:40]
He shook his head[00:02:44]
And as he shook his head[00:02:47]
I heard someone ask please[00:02:50]
Mr Bojangles[00:02:58]
Mr Bojangles[00:03:02]
Mr Bojangles[00:03:06]
Dance[00:03:10]
