Come fly with me, let's fly let's fly away
If you can use some exotic booze
There's a bar in far Bombay
Come fly with...
I met her at an aftershow party
I said have we met before?
She said hardly
She had a curry stain
That was...
Everytime we say goodbye
I die a little
Everytime we say goodbye
I wonder why a little
Why the gods above me...
I always have an alibi
You allow me there
But tonight I have no conscience
So what comes after that
...
Well I'm standing here looking at you
What do I see?
I'm looking straight through
It's so sad when you're young...
I was born long ago
I am the chosen I'm the one
I have come to save the day
And I won't leave until I'm done ...
You say you're sick and tired
Of feeling sick and tired
I walked and told the truth
Do you wish I'd stayed alive...
I'm gonna write you a letter
I think the sooner the better
Cause the time is right to find a better day
I'm an...
Take your time, to unwind
You will find it's love you are living
Clear the space, find a place
You will see it's love...
[Spoken: \"Ok settle down you all, settle down lady,
he's gonna be on stage real soon, that's right Mama put
your popcorn...

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 jumped so high, jumped so high
Then he lightly touched 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 he spoke right out
He talked of life, talked of life, he laughed clicked his heels and stepped
He said his name \"Bojangles\" and he danced a lick across the cell
He grabbed his pants and spread his stance,
Oh he jumped so high and then he clicked his heels
He let go a laugh, let go a laugh
and 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 through tears of 15 years how his dog and him traveled about
The dog up and died, he up and died
And after 20 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
I heard someone ask him please
Mr. Bojangles, Mr. Bojangles
Mr. Bojangles, dance.
