FRANK SINATRA - On The Road To Mandalay lyrics

rate me

Writer(s): kipling/speaks<br><br>By the old moulmein pagoda<br>Looking eastward to the sea<br>There's a burma gal a settin'<br>And I know that she waits for me<br><br>And the wind is in those palm trees<br>And the temple bells they say<br>Come you back you mother soldier<br>Come you back to mandalay, come you back to mandalay<br><br>Come you back to mandalay<br>Where the old flotilla lay<br>I can here those paddles chonkin'<br>From rangoon to mandalay<br><br>On the road to mandalay<br>Where the flying fishes play<br>And the dawn comes up like thunder<br>Out of china across the bay<br><br>Ship me somewhere east of suez<br>Where the best is like the worst<br>And there ain't no ten commandments<br>And a cat can raise a thirst<br><br>And those crazy bells keep ringing<br>'cause it's there that I long to be<br>By the egg foo yong pagoda<br>Looking eastward to the see
