Lyrics
Chorus
I’ll sail away to Mandalay
Where the charms of someone’s arms are calling me
And there I know I’ll plan to stay
With the one who’s waiting patiently
Beside a steam where roses dream
I’ll build a nest that’s blest
With love and happiness
I’ll hide away in Mandalay
And for aye I will stay
Far away in Mandalay
