On the Road to Mandalay

On the Road to Mandalay - Frank Sinatra (法兰克·辛纳屈)

Written by：Rudyard Kipling/Oley Speaks

By the old Moulmein Pagoda lookin' eastward to the sea

There's a Burma broad a settin' and I know she thinks of me

For the wind is in those palm trees and the temple bells they say

Come you back you British soldier

Come you back to Mandalay

Come you back to Mandalay

Come you back to Mandalay where the old flotilla lay

Can't you hear their paddles chunkin' from Rangoon to Mandalay

On the road to Mandalay where the flyin' fishes play

And the dawn comes up like thunder out of China 'cross the bay

Ship me somewhere east of Suez where the best is like the worst

Where there ain't no Ten Commandments and a cat can raise a thirst

'Cause those crazy bells are callin' and it's there that I would be

By the old Moulmein Pagoda lookin' lazy at the sea

Lookin' lazy at the sea

Come you back to Mandalay where the old flotilla lay

Can't you hear their paddles chunkin' from Rangoon to Mandalay

On the road to Mandalay where the flyin' fishes play

And the dawn comes up like thunder
