[00:00:04] I knew a man Bojangles and he'd dance for you

[00:00:10] In worn out shoes

[00:00:14] Silver hair a ragged shirt and baggy pants

[00:00:19] The old soft shoe

[00:00:24] He jumped so high jumped so high

[00:00:31] Then he'd lightly touch down

[00:00:37] I met him in a cell in New Orleans

[00:00:39] I was down and out

[00:00:46] He looked to me to be the eyes of age

[00:00:52] As he spoke right out

[00:00:57] He talked of life talked of life he laughed

[00:01:04] Slapped his leg a step

[00:01:10] He said his name Bojangles

[00:01:11] Then he danced a lick across the cell

[00:01:19] He grabbed his pants a better stance

[00:01:21] O he jumped so high he clicked his heels

[00:01:29] He let go a laugh let go a laugh

[00:01:36] Shook back his clothes all around

[00:01:44] Mr. Bojangles

[00:01:48] Mr. Bojangles

[00:01:53] Mr. Bojangles

[00:01:57] Dance

[00:02:01] He danced for those at minstrel shows and county fairs

[00:02:07] Throughout the south

[00:02:11] He spoke through tears of fifteen years how his dog and him

[00:02:17] Traveled about

[00:02:21] The dog up and died he up and died

[00:02:28] After twenty years he still grieves

[00:02:34] He said I dance now at every chance in honky tonks

[00:02:40] For drinks and tips

[00:02:44] But most the time I spend behind these county bars

[00:02:49] 'Cause I drinks a bit

[00:02:54] He shook his head and as he shook his head

[00:03:01] I heard someone ask him please please

[00:03:09] Mr. Bojangles

[00:03:13] Mr. Bojangles

[00:03:18] Mr. Bojangles

[00:03:22] Dance
