 In worn out shoes
     C              C/h              Am            Am/g

 He did the old soft shoe
F                   C/g                  E       Am    Am/g

     Dance

I met him in a cell down in New Orleans
But I was down and out
He looked to me to be the eyes of age
As he spoke right out
Well, he talked of life, yeah, you know, he talked of life
Laughed and slapped his leg a step

   Ref.

He said the name Bojangles then he danced a lick
All across the cell
He grabbed his pants for a better stance
Oh, he jumped high and clicked his heels
He let go laugh, yes, he let go laugh
Shook back his clothes all around

   Ref.
   First solo (se tab)

He danced for those at minstrel shows and county fairs
Throughout the south
Spoke with tears of fifteen years How his dog 'n him
had just travelled all about
And his dog up and died, he up and died
and after twenty years he still grieves

   Ref.

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
Cause I drinks a bit
He shook his head, and then he shook his head
I heard someone ask him: "Please"

   Ref.
   Ending solo (David Bromberg)
