Mr. Bojangles (With Prologue) - Nitty Gritty Dirt Band

I knew a man bojangles

And he'd dance for you

 

In worn out shoes

 

With 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

 

And 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 with tears of 15 years

How his dog and him traveled about

 

His dog up and died up and died

 

After 20 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
