I´ve paid my dues
Time after time
I´ve done my sentence
But committed no crime
And bad mistakes
I´ve made a few
I´ve had my share of sand kicked in my face
But I´ve come through

We are the champions - my friends
And we´ll keep on fighting - till the end
We are the champions
We are the champions
No time for losers
´Cause we are the champions - of the world

I´ve taken my bows
And my curtain calls
You brought me fame and fortuen and everything that goes with it
I thank you all

But it´s been no bed of roses
No pleasure cruise
I consider it a challenge before the whole human race
And I ain´t gonna lose

We are the champions - my friends
And we´ll keep on fighting - till the end
We are the champions -
We are the champions
No time for losers
´Cause we are the champions - of the world
