Mr. Bojangles (Original) - Neil Diamond (尼尔·戴蒙德)

I knew a man

Bojangles and he danced 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

He was down and out

 

He looked to me to be the eyes of age

 

As he spoke right out

 

He talked of life he talked of life

 

He laughed slapped his leg and stepped

 

Mr Bojangles

 

Mr Bojangles

 

Mr Bojangles dance

 

He said his name

Bojangles and he danced a lick

 

Across the cell

 

He grabbed his pants a better stance

And jumped so high clicked his heels

 

He let go a laugh Let go a laugh

 

Shook back his clothes all around

 

He danced for those in minstrel shows

And county fairs

 

Throughout the south

 

He spoke with tears of fifteen years

How his dog and he traveled about

 

His dog up and died he up and died

 

After twenty years he still grieves

 

Mr Bojangles

 

Mr Bojangles

 

Mr Bojangles dance

 

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 please

 

Mr Bojangles

 

Mr Bojangles

 

Mr Bojangles

 

Go on and dance

 

La la la la la

La la la la la

 

La la la la la
