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've 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 my family
  • I was no more than a boy
  • In the company of strangers
  • In the quiet of the railway station runnin scared
  • Laying low seeking out the poorer quarters
  • Where the ragged people go
  • Looking for the places only they would know
  • Lie la lie
  • Lie la lie la la la lie
  • La la lie la lie
  • Asking only workman's wages
  • I come lookin for a job but i get no offers
  • Just a come on from the whores on seventh avenue
  • I do declare there were times when i was so lonesome
  • I took some comfort there
  • Lie la lie
  • Lie la lie la la la lie
  • La la lie la lie
  • Lie la lie la la la lie
  • And i'm laying out my winter clothes
  • And wishing i was gone goin home
  • Where the new york city winters aren't bleedin me
  • Leadin me goin 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
  • Lie la lie
  • Lie la lie la la la lie
  • Lie la lie
  • Lie la lie la la la lie
  • Lie la lie la la la lie
  • Lie la lie
  • Lie la lie la la la lie
  • Lie la lie la la la lie
  • Lie la lie
  • Lie la lie la la la lie
  • Lie la lie la la la lie
  • Lie la lie
  • Lie la lie la la la lie
  • Lie la lie la la la lie
  • Lie la lie la la la lie
  • Lie la lie
  • Lie la lie la la la lie
  • Lie la lie la la la lie
  • Lie la lie
  • Lie la lie la la la lie
  • Lie la lie la la la lie
  • Lie la lie
  • Lie la lie la la la lie
  • Lie la lie la la la lie
