Nitty Gritty Dirt Band Mr. Bojangles Letras:
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. He jumped so
high, jumped so high And then he'd lightly touch
down.

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 the
smoke ran out. He talked of life, talked of life,
laughed and clicked his heels in step.

He said his name "Bojangles" and he
danced a lick across the cell. He grabbed his
pants, in feathered stance, oh he jumped so high,
& then he clicked his heels. He let go a

laugh, 'e let go a laugh, shook back his clothes
all around.

(CHORUS) Mr. Bojangles, Mr. Bojangles, Mr.
Bojangles, dance...

He danced for those at minstrel shows & county
fairs, throughout the south. He spoke with tears
of 15 years how his dog and him traveled about.
The dog up and died, he up and died, after 20
years he still grieved.

He said I dance now at every chance in honky
tonks, for drinks and tips. But most the time I
spend behind these county bars b'cause I drinks a
bit. He shook his head, and as he shook his head,
I heard someone ask him please, Pleeaase...

(CHORUS) Mr. Bojangles, Mr. Bojangles, Mr.
Bojangles, dance...
