Road To Mandalay |
| Like a king without a crown |
| As the curtain comes down |
| I went home but I came back for more |
| I was sad as a clown |
| I, I would rather steal than borrow |
| You and your heart away |
| I, I would rather lead than follow |
| The road to Mandalay |
| Since the first world war |
| You’ve seen it all for 50 years or more |
| Your face is tired |
| In your steps there is a crack where |
| People’s dreams keep falling in |
| And I, I would rather steal than borrow |
| You and your heart away |
| I, I would rather lead than follow |
| The road to Mandalay |
| As the sky threatens |
| Another land beckons |
| We can’t take it anymore |
| Have to know once and for all |
| Do we stand or do we fall |
| But I, I would rather steal than borrow |
| You and your heart away |
| And I, I would rather lead than follow |
| The road to Mandalay |
| The road to Mandalay |
