The Boxer

I am just a poor boy though my story's seldom told

  • I am just a poor boy though my story's seldom told
  • I have squandered my resistance
  • For a pocketful of mumbles
  • Such are promises
  • All lies and jest still the man hears what he wants to hear
  • And disregards the rest
  • When I left my home and family
  • I was no more than a boy
  • In the company of strangers
  • In the quiet of the railway station running scared
  • Laying low seeking out the poorer quarters where the ragged people go
  • Looking for the places only they would know
  • La la li
  • La la la la li la li
  • La la li
  • La la la la la la li la la la li
  • Asking only workman's wages I come looking for a job
  • But I get no offers
  • Just a come on from some b**ch
  • On seventh avenue
  • I do declare there were times when I was so lonesome
  • I took some comfort there la la la la la la
  • La la li
  • La la la la li la li
  • La la li
  • La la la la la la li la la la li
  • And I'm laying out my winter clothes and wishing I was gone
  • Going home
  • Where the new york city winters aren't bleeding me
  • Leading me going home
  • In the clearing stands a boxer
  • And a fighter by his trade
  • And he carries the reminders
  • Of every glove that laid him down or cut him
  • 'Til he cried out in his anger and his shame
  • I am leaving I am leaving
  • But the fighter still remains
  • La la la la la la la la la li
  • La la li
  • La la la la li la li
  • La la li
  • La la la la la la li la la la li
  • La la la la li la li
  • La la li
  • La la la la la la li la la la li
  • Yeay yeay yeay ow
