I am just a poor boy[00:00:07]

Though my story's seldom told [00:00:08]

I have squandered my resistance[00:00:11]

For a pocketful of mumbles'[00:00:13]

Such are promises [00:00:16]

All lies and jest [00:00:19]

Still' a man hears what he wants to hear[00:00:21]

And disregards the rest [00:00:25]

Mmm [00:00:27]

Mmm [00:00:28]

When I left my home[00:00:36]

And my family [00:00:37]

I was no more than a boy [00:00:38]

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'[00:00:50]

Seeking out the poorer quarters[00:00:51]

Where the ragged people go [00:00:54]

Looking for the places[00:00:56]

Only they would know [00:00:58]

Lie-la-lie [00:01:02]

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

Asking only workman's wages'[00:01:17]

I come looking for a job[00:01:20]

But I get no offers [00:01:22]

Just a come-on from the whores[00:01:25]

On Seventh Avenue [00:01:27]

I do declare'[00:01:31]

There were times[00:01:33]

When I was so lonesome[00:01:34]

I took some comfort there [00:01:36]

Lie-la-lie [00:01:38]

Lie-la-lie [00:02:11]

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

Then I'm laying out[00:02:26]

My winter clothes[00:02:28]

And wishing I was gone [00:02:29]

Going home'[00:02:32]

Where the New York City winters[00:02:34]

Aren't bleeding me [00:02:36]

Leading me[00:02:40]

Going home [00:02:44]

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

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

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

Of ev'ry glove that laid him down[00:03:01]

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

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

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

But the fighter still remains [00:03:11]

Mmm [00:03:13]

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

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

Lie-la-lie Lie-la-lie[00:03:30]

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

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

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

Lie-la-lie Lie-la-lie[00:03:51]

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