The Boxer (Live at Central Park, New York, NY - September 19, 1981) - Simon & Garfunkel
Written by：Paul Simon
I am just a poor boy
Though my story's seldom told
That squandered I have squandered my resistance
For a pocketful of mumbles
Such are promises
All lies and jest
Still a man hears what he wants to hear
And disregards the rest
En en en en en en en en en en en en
When I left my home and my family
I was no more than a boy
In the company of strangers
In the quiet of a railway station
Running 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 lie lie lie lie lie lie
Lie la lie
Lie lie lie lie lie lie lie lie lie lie lie lie
Asking only workman's wages
I come looking 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
Woo lie la lie lie lie lie lie
Now the years are rolling by me
The are rocking easily
I am older than I once was
And younger than I'll be
That's not unusual
No it isn't strange
After changes upon changes
We are more or less the same
After changes we are
More or less the same
Lie la lie
Lie la lie lie lie lie lie
Lie la lie lie lie lie lie lie lie lie
Lie lie lie lie lie
Lie la lie lie lie lie lie
Lie la lie lie lie lie lie lie
Lie lie lie lie lie lie lie
Then I'm laying out my winter clothes
Wishing I was gone
Going home
Where the New York City winters aren't bleeding me
Leading me
To going home
In the clearing stands a boxer
And a fighter by his trade
And he carries the remainders
Every glove that laid him down
On cut him till he cried out
In his anger and his shame
I am leaving I am leaving
But the fighter still remains
This is still remains
Lie la lie
Lie la lie lie lie lie lie
Lie la lie
Lie la lie lie lie lie lie lie lie lie lie lie
Lie lie lie lie lie lie lie
Lie la lie
Lie la lie lie lie lie lie lie lie lie lie lie
Lie lie lie lie lie lie lie
Lie la lie
Lie la lie lie lie lie lie lie lie lie lie lie
