Mr. Bojangles 歌詞

 

Mr. Bojangles - Nitty Gritty Dirt Band

I knew a man bojangles and he'd dance for you

 

In worn out shoes

 

Silver hair a ragged shirt and baggy pants

 

The old soft shoe

 

He jumped so high jumped so high

 

Then he'd lightly touch down

 

I met him in a cell in new orleans

I was down and out

 

He looked to me to be the eyes of age

 

As he spoke right out

 

He talked of life talked of life he laughed

Slapped his leg a step

 

He said his name "bojangles"

Then he danced a lick across the cell

 

He grabbed his pants a better stance

O he jumped so hi & he clicked his heels

 

He let go a laugh let go a laugh

 

Shook back his clothes all around

 

Mr Bojangles

 

Mr Bojangles

 

Mr Bojangles

 

Dance

 

He danced for those at minstrel shows and county fairs

 

Throughout the south

 

He spoke through tears of fifteen years how his dog and him

 

Traveled about

 

The dog up and died he up and died

 

After twenty years he still grieves

 

He said "I dance now at every chance in honky tonks

 

For drinks and tips

 

But most the time I spend behind these county bars

 

'Cause I drinks a bit"

 

He shook his head and as he shook his head

 

I heard someone ask him please please

 

Mr Bojangles

 

Mr Bojangles

 

Mr Bojangles

 

 

Dance
