The Boxer (Bonus Track) - Mumford & Sons/Paul Simon (保罗·西蒙)/Jerry Douglas
I am just a poor boy
Though my story seldom told

I squandered my resistance

For a pocket full 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 stations running scared

Laying low seeking out the poor 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

Then I'm laying down my winter clothes
And wishing I was home going home

Where the New York City winters
Are bleeding me bleeding me going home

In the clearing stands a boxer
And a fighter by his trade

And he carries the reminder

Of every glove that laid him down
And cut him till he cried out
In his anger and his shame
I am leaving I am leaving
But the fighter still remains
