The Boxer
 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 jests
 still a man hears what he wants to hear
 And disregards the rest

 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 Running scared

 Laying low,
 seeking out the poorer quarters where the ragged people go
 Looking for the places only they would know

 
 Asking only workman's wages I come looking 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

 Now the years are rolling by me 
 They are rocking evenly

I am older than I once was
 But younger than I'll be
 That's not unusual
 No, it isn't strange
 After changes upon changes
 We are more or less the same
 After changes we are more or less the same

 Then I'm laying out my winter clothes 
 And wishing I was gone.Going home

 Where the New York City winters aren't bleeding me,
 Leading me, going 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 till he cried out

 In his anger and his shame "I am leaving, I am leaving"
 But the fighter still remains
