Boxer Lyric | Simon and Garfunkel |  |  | THE BEST OF SIMON & GARFUNKEL |  |
| | | | |
I am just a poor boy though my story's seldom told
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, hmmmm
When I left my home and my family, I's no more than a
boy
In the company of strangers
In the quiet of the railway station,
runnin' scared, laying low,
Seeking out the poorer quarters, where the
ragged people go,
Looking for the places only they would know.
Li la

Asking only workman's wages, I come lookin' for a job,
But I
get no offers,
Just a come-on from the whores on 7th Avenue.
I do declare,
there were times when I was so lonesome
I took some comfort there.
La

(Instrumental bridge)
Li la li...
And I'm laying
out my winter clothes and wishing I was gone,
goin' home
Where the New
York City winters aren't bleedin' me, leadin' me,
goin' home.
In the
clearing stands a boxer, and a fighter by his trade
And he carries the
reminders of every glove that laid him down or cut him
'Til he cried out in
his anger and his shame
I am leaving, I am leaving, but the fighter still
remains.
Li la li...
