Modern Day Bojangles Lyrics
Hes a modern day Bojangles and his mind became tangled
Talking to the pigeons and the people passing by
Now the hookers and the holy men the y both tried to save him
But everything they talked of seemed to sound just like a lie
Hes a dancing from the southland and hes proud to take a home stand
Against this big old city that keeps looking over time
Chorus
And you keep on dancing
Keep on rolling time away
Lifes not a waltz its a faster pace
Keep on two stepping through it all
How you live your lifes your own damn call
His daddy held the key to happiness in his soul
Promised that hed pass it down when he got too old
But a stranger came along one day and took his heart away
Always thought that dancing would ring him back someday
And you keep on dancing
Keep on rolling time away
Lifes not a waltz its a faster pace
Keep on two stepping through it all
How you live your lifes your own damn call
Setting on the curbside and his memories tend to fade
Pigeons they all sing the songs and the people turn away

Now hes keeping the hookers and the holy men at bay
They say dance for me Bojangles and he doesnt hesitate
And you keep on dancing
Keep on rolling time away
Lifes not a waltz its a faster pace
Keep on two stepping through it all
How you live your lifes your own damn call
