Written by:Jerry Jeff Walker
I knew a man Bojangles and he'd dance for you
我认识一个叫波江格尔的老人 他会为你起舞翩翩
In worn out shoes
穿着磨破的旧鞋
Silver hair and ragged shirt and baggy pants
银发斑斑 衣衫褴褛 裤管晃荡
The old soft shoe
跳着轻柔的老式舞步
He jumped so high he jumped so high
他纵身跃起 跃得那么高
Then he'd lightly touch down
又轻轻点地落下

I met him in a cell in New Orleans
我在新奥尔良的牢房里遇见他
I was down and out
当时我落魄潦倒
He looked to me to be the eyes of age
他沧桑的眼神仿佛看透岁月
As he spoke right out
他直率地开口诉说
He talked of life he talked of life
他谈人生 他谈人生
He laughed slapped his leg a step
他大笑着拍腿 踏起舞步
He said the name Bojangles and he danced a lick across the cell
自称Bojangles 在牢房里翩然起舞
He grabbed his pants a better stance then he jumped so high
他提起裤管站稳脚跟 纵身跃向高空
He clicked his heels
鞋跟清脆相叩
He let go a laugh oh he let go a laugh
他放声大笑 笑得那样开怀
Shook back his clothes all around
破旧衣衫随风飘荡

He danced for those at minstrel shows and county fairs throughout the south
他在南方各地 为杂耍秀和乡村集市起舞
He spoke with tears of fifteen years how his dog and him traveled about
含泪诉说十五载 与爱犬流浪的岁月
His dog up and died he up and died
他的狗突然离去 突然离去
After twenty years he still grieves
二十年后仍难释怀
He said I dance now at every chance in honky tonks for drinks and tips
他说如今我跳遍每个酒馆 换酒钱与小费
But most o' the time I spend behind these county bars
但大多时光 消磨在县监狱的铁栏后
Hell I drinks a bit
哎 我贪杯几口
He shook his head and as he shook his head
他摇着头 当他摇头时
I heard someone ask him please
我听见有人向他请求
