The Boxer (Live)

Lyrics

[Intro] Voy a cantar una canción de Simon y Garfunkel Que se llama "The Boxer" Que mucha gente dice que es la historia de Simon en Nueva York Pero, él decía que no [Verse 1] 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 Na-na-na, na-na-na, na-nai, na-nai-na-na [Verse 2] 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, layin' low Seekin' out the poorer quarters, where the ragged people go Goin' to the places only they would know [Chorus] Na-na-nai Na-na-nai-na-na-na-nai Na-na-nai Na-na-nai-na-na-na-nai Na-na-na-na, na [Verse 3] Askin' 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 Na-na-na, na-na-na, na-nai, na-nai-na-na [Bridge] Na, nai, na-na-na, na, na, na Na-na, na-nai, na-na, na-nai, na, na Na, na, na, na [Chorus] Na-na-nai Na-na-nai-na-na-na-nai Na-na-nai Na-na-nai-na-na-na-nai Na-na-na-na, na [Verse 4] Well, I'm layin' out my winter clothes And wishin' I was gone I'm goin' home Hey, where the New York City winters aren't bleedin' me Leadin' me I'm goin' home [Verse 5] Well, in the clearin' stands a boxer And a fighter by his trade And he carries the reminder Of every glove that cut him down Or hit him until he cried out in his anger and his shame "I am leavin', I am leavin'", but the fighter still remains Na-na-na, na-na-na, na-nai, na-nai-na-na [Chorus] Na-na-nai Na-na-nai-na-na-na-nai Na-na-nai Na-na-nai-na-na-na-nai Na-na-na-na-na Na-na-nai Na-na-nai-na-na-na-nai Na-na-nai Na-na-nai-na-na-na-nai Na-na-na-na-na Na-na-nai Na-na-nai-na-na-na-nai Na-na-nai Na-na-nai-na-na-na-nai Na-na-na-na-na Na-na-nai Na-na-nai-na-na-na-nai Na-na-nai Na-na-nai-na-na-na-nai Na-na-na-na-na
