Upbeat Songs With Depressing Lyrics:
"Mr. Bojangles"
The Lyrics: He danced for throws at minstrel shows and county fairs
Through out the south He spoke with tears of fifteen years how his dog and him Had traveled about His dog up and died, he up and died After twenty years he still grieves. Why: The NGDB version was rather upbeat, while Sammy Davis, Jr.'s rendition retained some poignancy.
