Lyrics
Go baby, go baby I knew a man Bojangles and he danced for you In worn out shoes With silver hair, a ragged shirt and baggy pants He would do the old soft shoe He jumped so high, he jumped so high Then he lightly touched down I met him in a cell in New Orleans I was soo down and out He looked to me to be the eyes of age As he spoke right out, ummm He talked of life, he talked of life He laughed, slapped his leg a step He said his name, Bojangles, then he danced a lick... ...across the cell He grabbed his pants a better stance, ah Oh, he jumped up high, he clicked his heels. ooh He let go a laugh, ha, ha, let go a laugh Shook back his clothes all around Mr. Bojangles, Mr. Bojangles, Mr. Bojangles, dance! His name was Mr. Bojangles, Mr. Brown y'all, Mr. Bojangles Mr. Bojangles sho nuff can dance That boy can dance, That boy can dance, watch him go Watch him dance [whistling sound]
