Lyrics by:Paul Simon
Composed by:Paul Simon
Produced by:Boyce Avenue
I am just a poor boy
我只是个穷小子
Though my story's seldom told
尽管我的故事无人倾听
I have squandered my resistance
我已耗尽所有抵抗
For a pocketful of mumbles
只为换得满口袋的含糊承诺
Such are promises
诺言不过如此
All lies and jest
尽是谎言与戏谑
Still the man hears what he wants to hear
人们只听想听的话
And disregards the rest
对其余充耳不闻
Mmm mmm mmm
When I left my home and my family
当我离开家乡与亲人
I was no more than a boy
不过是个懵懂少年
In the company of strangers
置身陌生人群之中
In the quiet of a railway station
在寂静的火车站台
Running scared
惶恐奔逃
Laying low seeking out the poorer quarters
藏身陋巷 寻觅贫民窟
Where the ragged people go
那里是流浪者的归宿
Looking for the places only they would know
寻觅着只有他们知晓的角落
Lie-la-lie
Asking only workman's wages
只求一份苦力的工钱
I come looking for a job
我来寻找工作
But I get no offers
却无人问津
Just a come-on from the whores on Seventh Avenue
只有第七大道妓女的搭讪
I do declare there were times when I was so lonesome
我承认有时孤独难耐
I took some comfort there la la la la la la la
便在那里寻得些许慰藉 啦-啦-啦-啦-啦
Lie-la-lie
Then I'm laying out my winter clothes
我摊开冬衣
And wishing I was gone
渴望离去
Going home
踏上归途
Where the New York City winters aren't bleeding me
回到纽约的寒冬不再刺痛我的地方
Leading me
指引着我
Going home
踏上归途
In the clearing stands a boxer
空地上伫立着一位拳击手
And a fighter by his trade
他以拳击为生
And he carries the reminders
身上刻满伤痕印记
Of every glove that laid him down
每次被击倒的痛楚
Or cut him 'til he cried out
每次被打到痛哭失声
In his anger and his shame
在愤怒与羞耻中
I am leaving I am leaving
我要离开 我要离开
But the fighter still remains mmm
但斗士仍在坚持
Lie-la-lie
Lie-la-lie
Lie-la-lie
Lie-la-lie
Lie-la-lie
Lie-la-lie
Lie-la-lie
Lie-la-lie
Lie-la-lie
Lie-la-lie
Lie-la-lie
Lie-la-lie
Lie-la-lie
