[Verse 1]
I [C]knew a [G]man Bojangles
And [Am]he'll dance for [G]you
[F]In worn out[G] shoes
[C]With silver hai[G]r and ragged shirt,
[Am]baggy pant[G]s
[F]He would do the old[G] soft shoe

[Bridge 1]
[F]He would jum[Em]p so hig[E]h
Jump so [Am]high[C]
[D]Then he'd lightly
[G]touch down

[Verse 2]
[C]Told me of the time
[G]He worked wit[Am]h, with minstrel sho[G]ws
[F]Traveling throughout[G] the south
[C]Spoke with tea[G]rs for fifteen years
[Am]How his, how h[G]is dog and he
[F]They would tra[G]vel about

[Bridge 2]
[F]But his dog[Em] up and die[E]d
[Am]Got [C]up a[D]nd died
[G]After twenty years he still grieves

[Verse 3]
[C]He said "I dan[G]ce now at
[Am]every chan[G]ce in honky-tonks
[F]For my dri[G]nks and tips
[C]But most the time I,[G]
[Am]I spend behind these[G] country bars
[F]You see son I, [G]I drinks a bit"

[Bridge 3]
[F]Then he sho[Em]ok his hea[E]d
[Am]Oh Lord,[C] when [D]he shook his head
[G]I can swear I heard

[Chorus 1]
somebody saying please, please
[Am]That's Mister Bojang[G]les
[Am]Calling Mister Bojangl[G]es

Come back and [C]dance and [G]dance
And [Am]dance, please, [G]dance
