The Boxer歌词

[00:06.12]I am just a poor boy
[00:08.00]though my story s seldom told.
[00:10.62]I have squandered my resistance
[00:13.55]for a pocketful of mumbles,
[00:15.36]such are promises.
[00:16.80]All lies and jest.
[00:19.43]Still, a man hears what he wants to hear
[00:23.36]and disregards the rest.
[00:25.55]Mmm.......
[00:27.74]Mmm.......
[00:35.86]When I left my home
[00:37.42]and my family.
[00:38.49]I was no more than a boy.
[00:41.17]In the company of strangers,
[00:43.17]in the quiet of the railway station
[00:46.24]running scared.
[00:49.56]Laying low,
[00:51.43]seeking out the poorer quarters
[00:53.43]where the ragged people go.
[00:56.61]Looking for the places
[00:58.24]only they would know.
[01:01.43]Lie-la-lie.....
[01:04.92]Lie-la-lie.....
[01:17.49]Asking only workman s wages,
[01:19.42]I come looking for a job
[01:21.67]but I get no offers.
[01:25.23]Just a come-on from the whores
[01:27.55]on Seventh Avenue.
[01:31.17]I do declare,
[01:32.86]there were times
[01:33.98]when I was so lonesome
[01:36.11]I took some comfort there.
[02:10.55]Lie-la-lie.....
[02:15.67]Lie-la-lie.....
[02:26.67]Lie-la-lie.....
[02:27.05]Then I m laying out
[02:29.05]my winter clothes
[02:29.86]and wishing I was gone.
[02:34.99]Going home,
[02:35.60]where the New York City winters
[02:38.04]aren t bleeding me.
[02:39.92]Leading me
[02:43.86]going home.
[02:53.04]In the clearing stands a boxer,
[02:55.67]and a fighter by his trade.
[02:58.61]And he carries the reminders
[02:59.79]of ev ry glove that laid him down
[03:03.54]or cut him till he cried out.
[03:06.29]In his anger and his shame,
[03:08.19] I am leaving, I am leaving.
[03:10.68]But the fighter still remains.
[03:13.55]Mmm............
[03:18.37]Lie-la-lie..............Lie-la-lie
[03:23.63]Lie-la-lie..............Lie-la-lie
[03:31.26]
[03:33.85]Lie-la-lie..............Lie-la-lie
[03:41.36]Lie-la-lie..............Lie-la-lie
[03:54.04]Lie-la-lie..............Lie-la-lie
[04:01.54]Lie-la-lie..............Lie-la-lie
[04:09.91]Lie-la-lie..............Lie-la-lie
[04:26.73]Lie-la-lie..............Lie-la-lie
[04:43.54]
