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 theyre back
Laughing
Howard,

My intentions become
Not to lose what Ive won
Ambition has given way to
Desperation and i
Lost the fight for my eyes

Chorus
Boxings been good to me, howard
Now Im told, youre growing old
The whole time we knew
A couple of years Id be through
Has boxing been good to you?

Howard, now I confess
Im scared and lonely and tired
They seem to think Im made of clay
Another day
Im not cut out for this
I just know what to say
I say

Chorus

Well sometimes I punch myself
Hard as I can, yelling
Nobody cares
Hoping some one will tell me
How wrong I am
Howard,

Chorus
Boxings been good to me howard
Now Im told
Youre growing old
The whole time you knew
A couple of years
Id be through
Has boxing been good. . .
Has boxing been good. . .
Has boxing been good?
