Текст песни




I knew a man, Bojangles, and he danced for you
In worn out shoes
With silver hair, a ragged shirt and that ragged pants
The old soft shoe
He jumped so high, he jumped so high
Then he lightly touched down
I met him in a New Orleans café, he was
Down and out
He looked at me to be the very eyes of age
As he spoke right out
He talked of life, he talked of life
He laughed and slapped his leg a step
Mr. Bojangles
Mr. Bojangles
Mr. Bo, Bo, Bojangles, dance
He said, "Now and then, I dance at Honky Tonks"
For drinks and tips
But most of the time, I spend behind these county bars
He said, "You know, I drinks a bit"
Shook his head
And as he shook his head
He just nodded, "Please"
Mr. Bojangles
Mr. Bojangles
Mr. Bojangles, dance
He said, "Now and then, I dance every now and then"
For drinks and tips
He spoke of years, of 15 years of how his dog and he
Traveled down across the south, a bit
His dog up and died
He just up and died
After 20 years, he still grieved
Mr. Bojangles
Mr. Bojangles
Mr. Bojangles, dance!
