Knew a man Bojangles and he'd dance for you
In worn out shoes
穿着破旧的鞋子
Silver hair ragged shirt and baggy pants
银发斑驳 衣衫褴褛 裤管松垮
The old soft shoe
跳着轻盈的舞步
He jumped so high he jumps so high
他跃得那么高 跳得那么高
Then he'd lightly touch down
然后轻轻落地

Mr Bojangles dance

Met him in a cell in New Orleans
在新奥尔良的牢房里与他相遇
I was down and out
那时我落魄潦倒
He looked to me to be the eyes of age as he
他沧桑的眼神仿佛看透岁月
He spoke right out
直率地开口诉说
He talked about life he talked about life
他谈论人生 他谈论人生
He laughed slapped his leg and stepped
大笑着拍腿踏步
He said the name Bojangles and he danced a lick
自称波江格尔斯便翩然起舞
Across the cell
舞步掠过整间牢房
He grabbed his pants and took
他提起裤管站稳身姿
A stance and he jumped so high
纵身跃向半空
He clicked his heels
鞋跟清脆相击
He let go a laugh he let go a laugh
笑声恣意飞扬 笑声恣意飞扬
Shook his clothes all around
衣衫随舞步飘荡

He danced for those at minstrel
他为那些吟游艺人起舞
Shows and county fairs
在乡村集市上
Throughout the South
走遍南方各地
And he spoke in tears of 15 years
他含泪诉说十五年来
How his dog and him
与爱犬相依为命
They traveled about
四处漂泊的岁月
The dog up and died he up and died
那狗儿突然离世 突然离去
After 20 years he still grieves
二十年后他仍难释怀
He said I dance now at every
他说如今我跳着舞
Chance and honky tonks
在每间乡村酒吧
For drinks and tips
为酒钱和小费
But most the time I spend
但大多时光我都在
Behind these county bars
这些铁窗后度过
'Cause I drink a bit
只因贪杯几口
And he shook his head now
此刻他摇着头
He shook his head
不住地摇头
And I heard someone ask please
我听见有人轻声请求
