The Boxer feat. Mumford & Sons and Paul Simon - Jerry Douglas[00:00:00]

I am just a poor boy[00:00:09]

Though my story's seldom told[00:00:11]

I have squandered my resistance[00:00:14]

For a pocketful of mumbles[00:00:16]

Such are promises[00:00:18]

All lies and jest[00:00:20]

Still a man hears what he wants to hear[00:00:22]

And disregards the rest[00:00:25]

When I left my home[00:00:31]

And my family[00:00:32]

I was no more than a boy[00:00:33]

In the company of strangers[00:00:35]

In the quiet of the railway station[00:00:38]

Running scared[00:00:40]

Laying low[00:00:42]

Seeking out the poorer quarters[00:00:43]

Where the ragged people go[00:00:46]

Looking for the places[00:00:48]

Only they would know[00:00:50]

Lie la lie[00:00:53]

Lie la lie lie la lie lie la lie[00:00:55]

Lie la lie[00:00:58]

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

Asking only workman's wages[00:01:08]

I come looking for a job[00:01:10]

But I get no offers[00:01:12]

Just a come on from the whores[00:01:15]

On seventh avenue[00:01:17]

I do declare[00:01:20]

There were times when I was so[00:01:21]

Lonesome[00:01:23]

I took some comfort there[00:01:24]

Then I'm laying out my winter clothes[00:01:30]

And wishing I was gone[00:01:32]

Going home[00:01:34]

Where the New York city winters[00:01:37]

Aren't bleeding me[00:01:39]

Leading me[00:01:42]

Going home[00:01:44]

In the clearing stands a boxer[00:02:29]

And a fighter by his trade[00:02:32]

And he carries the reminders[00:02:34]

Of every glove that laid him down[00:02:37]

And cut him till he cried out[00:02:39]

In his anger and his shame[00:02:42]

I am leaving I am leaving[00:02:44]

But the fighter still remains[00:02:47]

Lie la lie[00:02:50]

Lie la lie lie la lie lie la lie lie la lie[00:02:53]

Lie la lie[00:02:58]

Lie la lie lie la lie lie la lie lie la lie[00:02:58]

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

Lie la lie lie la lie lie la lie lie la lie[00:03:07]

Lie la lie lie la lie lie la lie lie la lie[00:03:12]

Lie la lie lie la lie lie la lie lie la lie[00:03:17]
