Generate meaning
1
Way back then I was a champion
2
A fighter in the ring
3
And all the crowds would cheer
4
My praises they would sing
5
Now I am a forgotten man
6
A hobo out alone
7
No champ to push me on
8
Nothing, no-one to call my own
9
I was a dark eyed boy
10
Stars in his eyes
11
Promises made flesh and blood
12
Grip of arm
13
And granite charm
14
Oh, times were golden
15
Times were good
16
Sinew young
17
And skin of ore
18
Molten and streaming with dreams
19
Now I nod away the days
20
Barely remembering names it seems
21
Oh, I would smile
22
To hear the bell
23
Ringing out my glory
24
Like a bull I paced the ring
25
My bloody territory
26
I held on high
27
The fist in glove
28
The symbol of my power
29
Now I wait
30
A punch drunk fool
31
To fade away forever
32
Broken noses
33
Broken jaws
34
And many broken hearts
35
An idol
36
And a hero
37
Till my courage fell apart
38
And now my brain a-ringing
39
With the final bell and count
40
They hold my hand up limply
41
Told the world
42
That I was OUT!
43
I didn't mind the scars
44
The blood
45
The crushing of the hand
46
But to lose a nation's
47
Love, respect
48
Is something I'll never understand
49
I'm gonna bury my head
50
And cry
