《The Boxer》歌词

[00:00:00] The Boxer - Kruse & Blanke

[00:00:08] I am just a poor boy

[00:00:10] Though my story's seldom told

[00:00:13] I have squandered my resistance

[00:00:16] For a pocket full of mumbles such are promises

[00:00:22] All lies and jests

[00:00:24] Still a man hears what he wants to hear

[00:00:27] And disregards the rest

[00:00:39] When I left my home and my family

[00:00:41] I was no more than a boy

[00:00:44] In the company of strangers

[00:00:46] In the quiet of the railway station

[00:00:50] Running scared

[00:00:53] Laying low seeking out the poorer quarters

[00:00:57] Where the ragged people go

[00:01:00] Looking for the places

[00:01:02] Only they would know

[00:01:05] Lie la lie lie la la la lie lie

[00:01:10] Lie la lie lie la la la la lie la la lie

[00:01:21] Asking only workman's wages

[00:01:24] I come looking for a job

[00:01:26] But I get no offers

[00:01:29] Just a come-on from the whores

[00:01:31] On Seventh Avenue

[00:01:35] I do declare

[00:01:37] There were times when I was so lonesome

[00:01:40] I took some comfort there le le le le le le le

[00:02:16] Lie la lie lie la la la lie lie

[00:02:21] Lie la lie lie la la la la lie la la lie

[00:02:32] Then I'm laying out my winter clothes

[00:02:35] And wishing I was gone

[00:02:37] Going home

[00:02:40] Where the New York City winters

[00:02:42] Aren't bleeding me

[00:02:46] Leading me

[00:02:50] Going home

[00:03:00] In the clearing stands a boxer

[00:03:02] And a fighter by his trade

[00:03:05] And he carries the reminders

[00:03:08] Of ev'ry glove that laid him down

[00:03:11] Or cut him till he cried out

[00:03:13] In his anger and his shame

[00:03:16] I am leaving I am leaving

[00:03:18] But the fighter still remains

[00:03:26] Lie la lie

[00:03:29] Lie la la la lie lie

[00:03:32] Lie la lie

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

[00:03:40] Lie la la la lie lie

[00:03:42] Lie la lie

[00:03:45] Lie la la la la lie la la lie

[00:03:50] Lie la la la lie lie

[00:03:53] Lie la lie

[00:03:56] Lie la la la la lie la la lie

[00:04:01] Lie la la la lie lie

[00:04:04] Lie la lie

[00:04:06] Lie la la la la lie la la lie
