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?
