lirik lagu mr. bojangles – nancy wilson

[verse 1]
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

[refrain]
he jumped so high
jumped so high
the he’d lightly touch down
[verse 2]
i met him in
a cell in new orleans
i was
down and out
he looked at me
to be
the eyes of age
as he spoke right out

[refrain 2]
he talked of life
he talked of life
he laughed and slapped his leg a step

[chorus]
mr. bojangles
mr. bojangles
mr. bojangles
dance

[verse 3]
he said his name
“bojangles” then
he danced a l!ck
across the cell
he grabbed his pants
a better stance
oh, how he jumped
and he cl!cked his heels
[refrain 3]
he let go a laugh
he let go a laugh
shook back his clothes all around

[verse 4]
he’s danced for those
at minstrel shows
and county fairs
throughout the south
he spoke with tears
of fifteen years
how his dog and he
travelled about

[refrain 4]
but then his dog, his dog up and died
he just up and died
and after twenty years he still grieved

[chorus]
mr. bojangles
mr. bojangles
mr. bojangles
dance
[verse 5]
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”
he said, “i drinks a bit”

[refrain 5]
he shook his head
and as he shook his head
i heard someone ask, “please?

[chorus]
mr. bojangles
mr. bojangles
mr. bojangles
dance”

[outro]
dance
