Answer
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
When
I
Answer
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
Answer
only
they
would
know
Lie-la-lie
Lie-la-lie-lie-lie-lie-lie
Lie-la-lie
Lie-la-lie-lie-lie-lie-lie, lie-lie-lie-lie-lie
Asking
only
workman's
wages
I
come
looking
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
Answer
lonesome
I
took
some
comfort
there
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
Answer
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
I
love
you
