[Verse 1]
I knew a man, Bojangles, and he'd dance for you in worn out shoes
With silver hair, a ragged shirt and baggy pants, the old soft shoe
He'd jump so high, he'd jump so high
Then he lightly touched down
[Verse 2]
I met him in a cell in New Orleans, I was down and out
He looked at me to be the eyes of age as he spoke right out
He talked of life, he talked of life
He laughed, clicked heels and said
Mr. Bojangles, Mr. Bojangles, Mr. Bojangles, dance
[Verse 3]
He danced for those at minstrel shows, and at county fairs, throughout the south
He spoke with tears of 15 years, how his dog and he travelled about
His dog up and died, he just up and died
After 20 years he still grieves
[Verse 4]
He said, I dance now at every chance in honky-tonks for drinks and tips
But most of the time I spend behind these county bars, and I drink a bit
He shook his head, and as he shook his head, I heard someone ask please
Mr. Bojangles, Mr. Bojangles, Mr. Bojangles, dance
