[00:00.00]Mr. Bojangles - Jerry Jeff Walker
[00:09.09]I knew a man Bojangles and he'd dance for you
[00:14.51]In worn out shoes
[00:17.63]Silver hair and ragged shirt and baggy pants
[00:23.19]He did the old soft shoe
[00:27.70]He jumped so high he jumped so high
[00:33.88]Then he'd lightly touch down

[00:49.32]Mr Bojangles
[00:57.01]I met him in a cell in New Orleans
[00:59.60]I was down and out
[01:05.84]He looked to me to be the eyes of age
[01:11.03]As he spoke right out
[01:15.77]He talked to life he talked to life
[01:22.34]He laughed slapped his leg a step
[01:27.68]He said the name Bojangles
[01:29.27]And he danced a lick across the cell
[01:36.56]He grabbed his pants a better stance then he jumped so high
[01:42.18]He clicked his heels
[01:46.49]He let go a laugh oh he let go a laugh
[01:52.64]Shook back his clothes all around

[02:18.03]And county fairs throughout the South
[02:24.99]He spoke with tears of fifteen years
[02:26.87]How his dog and him traveled about
[02:35.12]His dog up and died he up and died
[02:41.20]After twenty years he still grieves
[02:47.24]He said I dance now at every chance
[02:49.39]In honky tonks for drinks and tips
[02:56.25]But most o' the time I spend behind these county bars
[03:01.44]Hell I drinks a bit
[03:06.34]He shook his head and as he shook his head
[03:12.57]I heard someone ask him please
