The Boxer - The British Pop Band[00:00:00]

I am just a poor boy[00:00:06]

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

I have squandered my resistance[00:00:10]

For a pocket full of mumbles[00:00:13]

Such are promises[00:00:15]

All lies and jests[00:00:19]

Still a man hears[00:00:20]

What he wants to hear[00:00:22]

And dis regards the rest[00:00:23]

When I left my home[00:00:34]

And my family[00:00:36]

I was no more than a boy[00:00:37]

In the company of strangers[00:00:40]

In the quiet of the railway[00:00:42]

Station running scared[00:00:44]

Laying low[00:00:48]

Seeking out[00:00:50]

The poorer quarters[00:00:51]

Where the ragged people go[00:00:52]

Looking for the places[00:00:55]

Only they would know[00:00:57]

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

I come looking for a job[00:01:18]

But I get no offers[00:01:20]

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

On seventh avenue[00:01:25]

I do declare[00:01:29]

There were times[00:01:31]

When I was so lonesome[00:01:32]

I took some comfort there[00:01:34]

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

My winter clothes[00:02:28]

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

Going home[00:02:31]

Where the new york city winters[00:02:34]

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

Bleeding me[00:02:40]

Going home[00:02:44]

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

And a fighter by his trade[00:02:56]

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

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

Or cut him till he cried out[00:03:04]

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]
