《The Boxer》歌词

[00:00:00] The Boxer - The Smash Hit Band

[00:00:05] I am just a poor boy

[00:00:07] Though my story's seldom told

[00:00:09] I have squandered my resistance

[00:00:12] For a pocket full of mumbles such are promises

[00:00:18] All lies and jests

[00:00:20] Still a man hears what he wants to hear

[00:00:23] And disregards the rest

[00:00:34] When I left my home and my family

[00:00:37] I was no more than a boy

[00:00:40] In the company of strangers

[00:00:42] In the quiet of the railway station

[00:00:45] Running scared

[00:00:48] Laying low seeking out the poorer quarters

[00:00:52] Where the ragged people go

[00:00:55] Looking for the places

[00:00:57] Only they would know

[00:01:00] Lie la lie lie la la la lie lie

[00:01:06] Lie la lie lie la la la la lie la la lie

[00:01:16] Asking only workman's wages

[00:01:18] I come looking for a job

[00:01:21] But I get no offers

[00:01:24] Just a come-on from the whores

[00:01:26] On Seventh Avenue

[00:01:30] I do declare

[00:01:31] There were times when I was so lonesome

[00:01:34] I took some comfort there le le le le le le le

[00:02:09] Lie la lie lie la la la lie lie

[00:02:14] Lie la lie lie la la la la lie la la lie

[00:02:25] Then I'm laying out my winter clothes

[00:02:28] And wishing I was gone

[00:02:30] Going home

[00:02:32] Where the New York City winters

[00:02:35] Aren't bleeding me

[00:02:39] Leading me

[00:02:43] Going home

[00:02:52] In the clearing stands a boxer

[00:02:54] And a fighter by his trade

[00:02:57] And he carries the reminders

[00:03:00] Of ev'ry glove that laid him down

[00:03:03] Or cut him till he cried out

[00:03:05] In his anger and his shame

[00:03:08] "I am leaving I am leaving"

[00:03:10] But the fighter still remains mmm mmm

[00:03:18] Lie la lie lie la la la lie lie

[00:03:23] Lie la lie lie la la la la lie la la lie

[00:03:31] Lie la lie lie la la la lie lie

[00:03:34] Lie la lie lie la la la la lie la la lie

[00:03:41] Lie la lie lie la la la lie lie

[00:03:44] Lie la lie lie la la la la lie la la lie

[00:03:52] Lie la lie lie la la la lie lie

[00:03:54] Lie la lie lie la la la la lie la la lie

[00:04:02] Lie la lie lie la la la lie lie

[00:04:05] Lie la lie lie la la la la lie la la lie

[00:04:13] Lie la lie lie la la la lie lie

[00:04:15] Lie la lie lie la la la la lie la la lie

[00:04:23] Lie la lie lie la la la lie lie

[00:04:26] Lie la lie lie la la la la lie la la lie

[00:04:33] Lie la lie lie la la la lie lie

[00:04:36] Lie la lie lie la la la la lie la la lie
