The Boxer - Bonus Track

[00:09.25] Well, I am just a poor boy
[00:11.03] Though my story seldom told
[00:13.83] I have squandered my resistance
[00:16.24] For a pocket full of mumbles such as promises
[00:20.39] All lies in jest still the man hears
[00:23.35] What he wants to hear and disregards the rest
[00:30.39] When I left my home and my family
[00:33.14] I was no more than a boy
[00:35.25] In the company of strangers
[00:37.79] In the quiet of the railway stations running scared
[00:42.10] Laying low, seeking out the poorer quarters
[00:46.15] Where the ragged people go
[00:48.04] Looking for the places only they would know
[00:52.72] Lie-lie-lie
[00:55.33] Lie-lie-lie, lie-lie-lie-lie
[00:57.77] Lie-lie-lie
[01:00.06] Lie-lie-lie, Lie-lie-lie-lie, lie-lie-lie
[01:07.56] Asking only workman's wages
[01:09.80] I come looking for a job but I get no offers
[01:15.06] Just a come on from the whores on 7th avenue
[01:19.31] I do declare
[01:21.10] There were times when I was so lonesome
[01:24.17] I took some comfort there
[01:29.79] And I'm laying out my winter clothes
[01:32.57] And wishing I was home, going home
[01:37.12] Where the New York City winters aren't bleeding me
[01:41.72] Leading me, going home
[01:47.17] Lie-lie-lie-lie-lie-lie
[01:54.36] Lie-lie-lie-lie
[01:58.24] Lie-lie-lie-lie
[02:01.86] Lie-lie-lie-lie
[02:05.11]
[02:29.22] In the clearing stands a boxer
[02:31.77] And a fighter by his trade
[02:34.49] And he carries the reminders
[02:37.26] Of every glove that laid him down
[02:39.46] And cut him 'til he cried out in his anger and his shame
[02:44.33] I am leaving, I am leaving
[02:46.95] But the fighter still remains
[02:50.30] Oh, lie-lie-lie
[02:52.79] Lie-lie-lie, lie-lie-lie-lie
[02:55.25] Lie-lie-lie
[02:57.69] Lie-lie-lie, Lie-lie-lie-lie, lie-lie-lie
[03:02.53] Lie-lie-lie, lie-lie-lie-lie
[03:04.99] Lie-lie-lie
[03:07.32] Lie-lie-lie, Lie-lie-lie-lie, lie-lie-lie
[03:12.16] Lie-lie-lie, lie-lie-lie-lie
[03:14.65] Lie-lie-lie
[03:17.07] Lie-lie-lie, Lie-lie-lie-lie, lie-lie-lie
[03:22.52]
