[00:06.23]I am just a poor boy
[00:07.97]Though my story's seldom told
[00:10.93]I have squandered my resistance
[00:13.90]For a pocketful of mumbles
[00:16.39]Such are promises
[00:18.43]All lies and jest
[00:21.34]Still, a man hears what he wants to hear
[00:24.18]And disregards the rest
[00:26.24]When I left my home and my family
[00:38.52]I was no more than a boy
[00:40.96]In the company of strangers
[00:43.99]In the quiet of the railway station
[00:46.72]Running scared
[00:50.16]Laying low, seeking out the poorer quarters
[00:54.11]Where the ragged people go
[00:57.11]Looking for the places only they would know
[01:01.79]Lie-la-lie...
[01:17.49]Asking only workman's wages
[01:19.73]I come looking for a job
[01:22.28]But I get no offers
[01:25.44]Just a come-on from the whores on Seventh Avenue
[01:31.18]I do declare there were times when I was so lonesome
[01:34.99]I took some comfort there
[01:37.56]Lie-la-lie...
[02:27.36]Then I'm laying out my winter clothes
[02:29.84]And wishing I was gone
[02:32.01]Going home
[02:35.09]Where the New York City winters aren't bleeding me
[02:38.88]Leading me
[02:45.32]Going home
[02:54.77]In the clearing stands a boxer
[02:56.74]And a fighter by his trade
[02:59.12]And he carries the remainders
[03:01.71]Of every glove that laid him down
[03:05.34]And cut him till he cried out
[03:07.38]In his anger and his shame
[03:09.30]“I am leaving, I am leaving”
[03:12.16]But the fighter still remains
[03:19.77]Lie-la-lie...
[03:40.11]
