《The Boxer》歌词

[00:00:00] The Boxer - Studio Sunset

[00:00:05] He is just a poor boy

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

[00:00:09] He has squandered his resistance

[00:00:12] For a pocketful of mumbles

[00:00:14] Such are promises

[00:00:17] All lies and jest

[00:00:19] Still a man hears what he wants to hear

[00:00:22] And disregards the rest

[00:00:24] Mmm

[00:00:28] Mmm

[00:00:34] When he left his home

[00:00:35] And his family

[00:00:36] He was no more than a boy

[00:00:39] In the company of strangers

[00:00:41] In the quiet of the railway station

[00:00:44] Running scared

[00:00:47] Laying low

[00:00:48] Seeking out the poorer quarters

[00:00:51] Where the ragged people go

[00:00:53] Looking for the places

[00:00:55] Only they would know

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

[00:01:03] Lie-la-lie

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

[00:01:15] Asking only workman's wages

[00:01:18] He came looking for a job

[00:01:20] But he got no offers

[00:01:23] Just a come-on from the whores

[00:01:25] On Seventh Avenue

[00:01:29] I do declare

[00:01:30] There were times

[00:01:31] When he was so lonesome

[00:01:33] He took some comfort there

[00:01:35] Lie-la-lie

[00:01:39] Lie-la-lie

[00:02:13] Lie-la-lie

[00:02:28] Then he's laying out

[00:02:29] His winter clothes

[00:02:30] And wishing he was gone

[00:02:32] Going home

[00:02:35] Where the New York City winters

[00:02:37] Aren't bleeding him

[00:02:41] Leading him

[00:02:45] Going home

[00:02:53] In the clearing stands a boxer

[00:02:55] And a fighter by his trade

[00:02:58] And he carries the reminders

[00:03:01] Of every glove that laid him down

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

[00:03:06] In his anger and his shame

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

[00:03:12] But the fighter still remains

[00:03:22] Lie-la-lie Lie-la-lie

[00:03:26] Lie-la-lie Lie-la-lie

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

[00:03:36] Lie-la-lie Lie-la-lie

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

[00:03:43] Lie-la-lie Lie-la-lie

[00:03:46] Lie-la-lie Lie-la-lie

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

[00:03:53] Lie-la-lie Lie-la-lie

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

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