1
I knew a man Bojangles
2
And he'd dance for you
3
In worn out shoes
4
With silver hair a ragged shirt
5
And baggy pants
6
He would do the old soft shoe
7
He would jump so high
8
Jump so high
9
Then he lightly touch down
10
He told me of the time he worked with
11
Minstrel shows travelling
12
Throughout the south
13
He spoke with tears of fifteen years
14
How his dog and he
15
They would travel about.
16
But his dog up and died
17
He up and died
18
And after twenty years he still grieved
19
He said "I dance now
20
At every chance in the Honky Tonks
21
For my drinks and tips
22
But most the time I spend
23
Behind these country bars
24
You see on I drinks a bit"
25
Then he shook his head
26
Oh lord when he shook his head
27
I could swear I heard someone say please
28
Mister Bojangles
29
Call him Mister Bojangles
30
Mister Bojangles come back and dance please
31
Come back and dance again Mr Bojangles
