作曲 : Hay
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
