  • sorry therese, feck cheeky smiles, this is the one and only version ot this song

  • @dodger19701 You're wrong. Perhaps you should try looking it up and then try posting again. lol

  • Just gonna put this out there, the song isn't about Bill 'Bojangles' Robinson (the guy in the pictures)

  • @cancerkills567 You're late, friend. That's been discussed.

  • Too true, Great video, but inaccurate. Not that it matters, but this song is based on some white guy Jerry Jeff Walker encountered in the "drunk tank" of the New Orleans parish jail.

  • @brjames87 awesome. we established that about 2 years ago. <3

  • @vixxa he didnt mean literally obviously

  • Beloved songstress, lovely Nina, you are audio opium. Seriously. I feel the same when I hear your voice as the way I felt on opium. Thanks.

  • best version is by JOHN HOLT! period

  • @dodger19701 Song was first written andpreformed by Jerry Jeff Walker, and I ddon't think this is a bad version but listen to Robbie Williams version,not a fan of his but he does a good version,inmy opinion Neil Diamond does the best version

  • Gavin Jaunky

  • Check out this English kid, Ryan Kirwan, singing this,... He is unbelievable!

  • Nina was simply a Goddess! Her voice cut's right to the heart and shreds it to bit's!

  • I dance to this and live on the streets GOD BLESS us all

  • This song was sung by a good friend of mine on the streets and I fell in love with the lyrics.  Homeless life is something to embrace. Blessings to those on the streets and still hopeful for LOVE. Blessings to all who read his.

  • sempre que ouço esta musica faz-me sonhar e relembrar assim momentos lindos ai Mrs Nina Simone you have such a nice voice thanks
