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
