I knew a man, Bojangles and he danced for you
In worn out shoes
Silver hair, a ragged shirt and baggy pants
The old soft shoe

He jumped so high
He jumped so high
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 he spoke right out

He talked of life
He talked of life
He laughed, clicked his heels and stepped

He said his name, Bojangles and he danced a lick
Across the cell
He grabbed his pants, a better stance
Oh, he jumped so high
Then he clicked his heels

He let go a laugh
He let go a laugh
Pushed back his clothes all around

Mr. Bojangles
Mr. Bojangles
Mr. Bojangles
Dance

He danced for those in minstrel shows and county fairs
Throughout the south
He spoke with tears of fifteen years how his dog and him
Traveled about
The dog up and died
He up and died
After twenty years he still grieves

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
He said, "I drinks a bit."

He shook his head
And as he shook his head
I heard someone ask him please
Please

Mr. Bojangles
Mr. Bojangles
Mr. Bojangles
Dance


Mirror lyrics:

Dance
Mr. Bojangles
Mr. Bojangles
Mr. Bojangles

Please
I heard someone ask him please
And as he shook his head
He shook his head

He said, "I drinks a bit."
But most the time I spend behind these county bars
For drinks and tips
He said I dance now at every chance in honky tonks

After twenty years he still grieves
He up and died
The dog up and died
Traveled about
He spoke with tears of fifteen years how his dog and him
Throughout the south
He danced for those in minstrel shows and county fairs

Dance
Mr. Bojangles
Mr. Bojangles
Mr. Bojangles

Pushed back his clothes all around
He let go a laugh
He let go a laugh

Then he clicked his heels
Oh, he jumped so high
He grabbed his pants, a better stance
Across the cell
He said his name, Bojangles and he danced a lick

He laughed, clicked his heels and stepped
He talked of life
He talked of life

As he spoke right out
He looked to me to be the eyes of age
Down and out
I met him in a cell in New Orleans, I was

Then he'd lightly touch down
He jumped so high
He jumped so high

The old soft shoe
Silver hair, a ragged shirt and baggy pants
In worn out shoes
I knew a man, Bojangles and he danced for you
