Letra de Mr Bojangles - Nitty Gritty Dirt Band - Rollingstone Las 100 Canciones Mas Rolling De La Historia

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

He jumped so high
He jumped so high
And 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 the smoke ran out

He talked of life
He talked of life
Laughed clicked his heels and stepped

He said his name Bojangles and he danced a lick
Across the cell
He grabbed his pants and favored stance
'Fore he jumped so high
And then he clicked his heels

He let go a laugh

He let go a laugh
Shook back his clothes all around

Mr Bojangles Mr Bojangles Mr Bojangles dance

He danced for those at minstrel shows and county fairs
Throughout the south
He spoke in tears of fifteen years
How his dog and him
Travelled 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
Cause I drinks a bit

He shook his head
And as he shook his head
And I heard someone ask please, pleeease

Mr Bojangles Mr Bojangles hey Mr Bojangles dance
