Name that tune returns

[justintime]

I remember John Denver singing it as well, and I am guessing that John Denver also wrote Mr Bojangles.

 

[DL]

NOPE!

Jerry Jeff Walker wrote the song when he was in jail with "mr bo-jangles". Nitty gritty made the hit out of it. I think the song was written on a peice of paper found in the trunk of jerry's car or something like that. Some of cross canadian ragweed's stuff sound's like Jerry. In their song If I was president they would make jerry jeff their chief of staff. I have everone of jerry jeff's records. He was liked by roughnecks and cowboys and hippies I think. ;D

I am crushed! Up until today, I have only been wrong once before.... and that was one time when I thought I was wrong. LOL    AJ is right, Jerry Jeff did write this song. How do I know?  I know because I cheated and looked it up!!!

The video game she play me.
Face it, on the level, but it take you
every time on a one on one.
Feeling running down your spine
Nothing gonna save your one last dime cause it own you
Through and through

He was turned to steel
In the great magnetic field
When he travelled time
For the future of mankind

Nobody wants him
He just stares at the world
Planning his vengeance
That he will soon unfold

You've been standin' on this corner for a thousand nights
It's the slowest corner known to man
Watch the strange faces pass beneath the lights
With a bottle wavin' in your hand...

Nope, not Seger.  I can see the similarities though, now that you mention it.

The rest of the verse;

You've got just enough money for some nothin' to go
It aint exactly what you planned
So lonely you can't even say hello
And no one seems to understand...

How many roads must a man walk down, befor you can call him a man?
How many seas must the white dove sail, before she can sleep in the sand?
How many times must the cannon balls fly, before they are forever band?
The answer my friend, is blowin' in the wind, the answer is blowin' in the wind
