| [00:12.41] | I knew a man Bojangles and he'd dance for you in worn out shoes |
| [00:22.47] | Silver hair, ragged shirt and baggy pants, that old soft shoe |
| [00:34.12] | He'd jump so high, he'd jump so high, then he lightly touched down |
| [00:49.81] | Mr. Bojangles, Mr. Bojangles, dance. |
| [01:02.28] | |
| [01:09.08] | I met him in a cell in New Orleans, I was down and out |
| [01:19.07] | He looked to me to be the eyes of age as he spoke right out |
| [01:31.85] | He talked of life, he talked of life, laughing slapped his leg stale |
| [01:46.59] | Mr. Bojangles, Mr. Bojangles, dance. |
| [02:02.44] | |
| [02:05.44] | He said the name Bojangles and he danced a lick all across the cell |
| [02:16.18] | He grabbed his pants for a better stance, oh he jumped so high and he clicked |
| [02:22.50] | up his heels |
| [02:26.92] | He let go laugh, he let go laugh, shook back his clothes all around |
| [02:43.02] | Mr. Bojangles, Mr. Bojangles, dance, yeah, dance. |
| [03:01.91] | |
| [03:02.37] | He danced for those at minstrel shows and county fairs throughtout the south |
| [03:13.84] | He spoke with tears of 15 years of how his dog and him but just travelled all about |
| [03:26.61] | His dog up and died, he up and died, and after 20 years he still grieves |
| [03:40.44] | Mr. Bojangles, Mr. Bojangles, dance. |
| [03:51.24] | |
| [03:59.14] | He said I dance now at every chance at honky-tonks for drinks and tips |
| [04:09.28] | But most of the time I spend behind these county bars, cause I drink so bit |
| [04:20.86] | He shook his head, yes he shook his head, I heard someone ask him, please, |
| [04:36.39] | Mr. Bojangles, Mr. Bojangles, dance, dance, Mr Bojangles, dance. |
