[00:00.000]Mr. Bojangles (With Prologue) - Nitty Gritty Dirt Band
[01:44.212]I knew a man bojangles
[01:46.088]And he'd dance for you
[01:50.020]In worn out shoes
[01:53.594]With silver hair a ragged shirt
[01:55.660]And baggy pants
[01:59.219]The old soft shoe
[02:03.845]He jumped so high jumped so high
[02:10.265]Then he'd lightly touch down
[02:16.553]I met him in a cell in new orleans
[02:19.136]I was down and out
[02:25.949]He looked to me to be the eyes
[02:28.544]Of age as he spoke right out
[02:36.340]He talked of life talked of life
[02:42.968]He laughed slapped his leg a step
[02:49.188]He said his name "bojangles"
[02:50.968]Then he danced a lick across the cell
[02:58.498]He grabbed his pants
[02:59.392]A better stance
[03:00.516]O he jumped so hi
[03:03.826]And he clicked his heels
[03:08.809]He let go a laugh let go a laugh
[03:15.360]Shook back his clothes all around

[03:41.595]At minstrel shows and county fairs
[03:46.110]Throughout the south
[03:50.035]He spoke with tears of 15 years
[03:52.009]How his dog and him traveled about
[04:00.386]His dog up and died up and died
[04:06.638]After 20 years he still grieves
[04:13.243]He said i dance now at every chance
[04:15.220]In honky tonks for drinks and tips
[04:22.722]But most the time i spend
[04:24.130]Behind these county bars
[04:28.028]Cause i drinks a bit
[04:33.078]He shook his head
