The Boxer - Simon & Garfunkel (西蒙和加芬克尔)

Lyrics by:Paul Simon

Composed by:Paul Simon

I am just a poor boy

Though my story's seldom told

I've 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 hmm hmm

When I left my home and my family

I was 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

Lie la lie

La la la la lie lie lie lie lie lie

La la la la lie lie la la la la lie

Asking only workman's wages

I come lookin'

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

Oh la la la la

And the years are rolling by me

The are rocking evenly

I am older than I once was

And younger than I'll be

That's not unusual

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

La la la la lie lie lie lie lie lie

La la la la lie lie la la la la lie

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 hmm hmm

Lie la lie

La la la la lie lie lie lie lie lie

La la la la lie lie la la la la lie

La la la la lie lie lie lie lie lie

La la la la lie lie la la la la lie

La la la la lie lie lie lie lie lie

La la la la lie lie la la la la lie
