Quiet Hollers - Boxer Song lyrics

Last night I dreamed that I was a boxer Walking home through the city After winning a fight The drunks called me Champ and The who*es called me Baby But my love called me home through The cold, rainy night My friends called me reckless I thought I knew better I said I've got one more Fight in me, I'm sure But I ain't no young man And the next time I fall down It'll only be pride that I stand back up for My manager, Johnny, said we had a good run I'm luck I still have my health and my mind And with the purse from this last fight, I can pay off my mortgage And try to forget that I ache all the time I went home to my baby The house stood in darkness The bell was still ringing Loud and clear in my head I laid myself down and Drifted off next to her Where nothing existed But me and her and this bed When I woke I was naked And pressed against my lover Her hips bucking wildly against mine But never once did she Turn her eyes to look at me I suppose that I could have been anyone Just for that short time
