Oh I knew a man, Bojangles and he danced for you
In worn out shoes With silver hair and ragged shirt and baggy pants The old soft shoe He jumped so high, he jumped so high Then he’d lightly touch down Mr. Bojangles, Mr Bojangles Mr Bojangles dance 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, he talked of life He laughed slapped his leg a step He spoke the name’s Bojangles then he danced a lick Across the cell He grabbed his pants, a better stance Oh he jumped so high, he clicked his heels He let go a laugh, He let go a laugh Shook back his clothes all around Mr Bojangles Mr Bojangles Mr Bojangles oh dance He danced for those at minstrel shows and county fairs Throughout the south He spoke with tears of fifteen years how his dog and him Traveled about His dog up and died, His dog up and died 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 please Mr Bojangles, Mr Bojangles Mr Bojangles oh dance |

When shadows fall and stars appear
A pain I feel I cannot bear If I could relive that faithful day I would not turn my love away I reveal how I do adore her Hang my heart on my sleeve just for her All my love thru-out life assure her If this moment I could Amour her. When I think of her tender lips Gentle touch of her finger-tips Reminisce on her eyes so fair Moonlight soft on her downy hair I reveal how I do adore her Hang my heart on my sleeve just for her All my love thru-out life assure her If this moment I could Amour her. If some day I should see her smile Hold her hand and me heart beguile Feel her warmth in her earnest prayer Darling shield me from all despair I reveal how I do adore her Hang my heart on my sleeve just for her All my love thru-out life assure her If this moment I could Amour her. Now I'm standing alone and sad Thinkin' upon the joys I've had Time makes fools of men they say Take me back to that distant day I reveal how I do adore her Hang my heart on my sleeve just for her All my love thru-out life assure her If this moment I could Amour her |

Them that's got shall get
Them that's not shall lose So the bible says and it still is news Mama may have papa may have But God bless the child That got its own, that got its own Yes the strong gets more While the weak ones fade Empty pockets don't ever make the grade Mama may have, papa may have But God bless the child That's got its own, that's got its own Money you've got lots of friends Crowding around the door When you're gone And the spending ends They don't come no more Rich relations give Crusts of bread and such You can help your self But don't take to much Mama may have, papa may have But God bless the child That's got its own, that's got its own |

Four strong winds that blow lonely
Seven seas that run high All those things that don't change come what may But our good times are all gone And I'm bound for moving on I look for you if I'm ever back this way Think Ill go out to Alberta Weathers good there in the fall Got some friends I can go to working for Still I wish you change your mind If I asked you one more time But we've been through that a hundred times or more If I get there before the snow flies And if things are going good You could meet me if I send you down the fare But by then it would be winter ain't too much for you to do And those winds sure can blow cold way out there |

Long time ago in Bethlehem, So the Holy Bible say, Mary's boy child, Jesus Christ, Was born on Christmas day, Hark, now hear the angels sing, A newborn King today, And man will live forevermore, Because of Christmas day. Trumpets sound and angels sing, Listen to what they say, That Man will live forevermore, Because of Christmas day. (verse 1) While shepherds watched their flocks by night, They saw a bright new shining star, They heard a choir sing, The music seemed to come from afar, (verse 2) Now, Joseph and his wife, Mary, Come to bethlehem that night, They found no place to bear her child, Not a single room was in sight. (verse 3) By and by, they find a little nook, In a stable all forlorn, And in a manger cold and dark, Mary's litlle Boy was born! (end song with a full repeat of chorus) |

I wonder why nobody don't like me
Or is it the fact that I'm ugly? I wonder why nobody don't like me Or is it the fact that I'm ugly? I leave my whole house and home My children don't want me no more Bad talk inside the house they bring And when I talk they start to sing ?Mama, look a boo boo,? they shout Their mother tell them, ?Shut up your mouth? ?That is your daddy, oh, no My daddy can't be ugly? ?So, shut your mouth, go away Mama, look at boo boo they Shut your mouth, go away Mama, look at boo boo they? I couldn't even digest my supper Due to the children's behavior ?John, yes pa, come here a moment Bring the belt, you're much too impudent? John says, ?It's James who started first? James tells the story in reverse I drag my belt from off me waist You should hear them screaming round the place ?Mama, look at boo boo,? they shout Their mother tell them, ?Shut up your mouth That is your daddy, oh, no My daddy can't be ugly? ?So, shut your mouth, go away Mama, look at boo boo they Shut your mouth, go away Mama, look at boo boo they? I got carried away So I began to question the mother "These children ain't got no behavior" So I began to question the mother "These children ain't got no behavior" "They're playing with you," my wife declared "You should be proud of them, my dear" Then children were taught too blooming slack That ain't no kind of joke to crack ?Mama, look at boo boo,? they shout Their mother tell them, ?Shut up your mouth That is your daddy, oh, no My daddy can't be ugly? ?So, shut your mouth, go away Mama, look at boo boo they Shut your mouth, go away Mama, look at boo boo they" I wonder why nobody don't like me Or is it the fact that I'm ugly? I wonder why nobody don't like me Or is it the fact that I'm ugly? I leave my whole house and go My [Incomprehensible] don't want me no more Bad talk inside the house they bring And when I talk they start to sing ?Mama, look a boo boo,? they shout Their mother tell them, ?Shut up your mouth That is your daddy, oh, no My daddy can't be ugly? ?So, shut your mouth, go away Mama, look at boo boo they Shut your mouth, go away Mama, look at boo boo they? ?Shut your mouth, go away Mama, look at boo boo they Shut your mouth, go away Mama, look at boo boo they Shut your mouth? |

It's as dark as a dungeon way down in the mine
I never will forget one time when I was on a little visit down home in Ebenezer, Kentucky. I was a-talkin' to an old man that had known me ever since the day I was born, and an old friend of the family. He says, "Son, you don't know how lucky you are to have a nice job like you've got and don't have to dig out a livin' from under these old hills and hollers like me and your pappy used to." When I asked him why he never had left and tried some other kind of work, he says, "Nawsir, you just won't do that. If ever you get this old coal dust in your blood, you're just gonna be a plain old coal miner as long as you live." He went on to say, "It's a habit sorta like chewin' tobaccer." Come and listen you fellows, so young and so fine, And seek not your fortune in the dark, dreary mines. It will form as a habit and seep in your soul, 'Till the stream of your blood is as black as the coal. It's dark as a dungeon and damp as the dew, Where danger is double and pleasures are few, Where the rain never falls and the sun never shines It's dark as a dungeon way down in the mine. It's a-many a man I have seen in my day, Who lived just to labor his whole life away. Like a fiend with his dope and a drunkard his wine, A man will have lust for the lure of the mines. I hope when I'm gone and the ages shall roll, My body will blacken and turn into coal. Then I'll look from the door of my heavenly home, And pity the miner a-diggin' my bones. |
