I knew a man bojangles and he'd

Dance for you

In worn out shoes

Silver hair and ragged shirt and baggy pants

He did the old soft shoe

He jumped so high he jumped so high

Then he'd lightly touch down

Mr bojangles

Mr bojangles

Mr bojangles

Dance

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 he talked of life

Laughed

He slapped his leg a step

He said the name bojangles

And he danced a lick across the cell

He grabbed his pants a better stance

Then he jumped so high

He clicked his heels

He let go a laugh oh he 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 fifteen years

How his dog and him traveled about

His 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 of the time i spend behind these

County bars

Hell i drinks a bit

He shook his head and as he shook his head

I heard someone ask him please

Mr bojangles

Mr bojangles

Mr bojangles dance
