Howard, the strangest things have happened lately when I
Take a good swing at all my dreams, they pivot and slip
I drop my fists and they're back laughing, Howard
My intention's become not to lose what I've won
My ambition has given way to desperation and I
Lost the fight for my eyes
Boxing's been good to me, Howard
Now I'm told, you're growin' old
The whole time we knew
A couple of years I'd be through
Has boxing been good to you?
Howard, now I confess I'm scared and lonely and tired
They seem to think I'm made of clay, another day
I'm not cut out for this, I just know what to say, I say
Boxing's been good to me, Howard
Now I'm told, you're growin' old
The whole time we knew
A couple of years I'd be through
Has boxing been good to you?
Well sometimes I punch myself
Hard as I can, yelling Nobody
cares
Hoping some one will tell me
How wrong I am, Howard
Boxing's been good to me, Howard
Now I'm told, you're growing old
The whole time you knew
A couple of years I'd be through
Has boxing been good?
Has boxing been good?
Has boxing been good?
