(Jerry Jeff Walker)

I knew a man Bojangles
And he danced for you in worn out shoes
With silver hair and ragged shirt
And baggy pants the old soft shoe.

He jumped so high, he 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
And he spoke right out
He talked of life, he talked of life
He laughed slapped his leg a step
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, oh, dog up and died
After twenty years he still grieves
He said I dance now at every chance
In honky tonks for drinks and for tips.

But most the time I spend behind these county bars
'Cause I drink a bit
He shook his head, he shook his head
And I heard someone ask please
Mr Bojangles, Mr Bojangles, Mr Bojangles, oh dance, oh dance...
