LYRICS (voices in brackets)
 

(Tenors only) I've paid my dues, time after time
I've done my sentence but committed no crime
(Altos only) And bad mistakes I've made a few
I've had my share of sand kicked in my face
But I've come through
(S, T, B) And I mean to go

(All) on and on and on and on

​

We are the champions, my friends
And we'll keep on fighting till the end
We are the champions
We are the champions
Together (Sop only) No time for losers 'cause (others) Oo---

(All) We are the champions of the World

 

(Tenors only) I've taken my bows and my curtain calls
You brought me fame and fortune that goes with it
I thank you all 
(Altos only) But it's been no bed of roses, no pleasure cruise
I consider it a challenge before the human race
And I ain't gonna lose

(S, T, B) And I mean to go

(All) on and on and on and on

​

We are the champions, my friends

And we'll keep on fighting till the end

We are the champions

We are the champions

Together (Sop only) No time for losers 'cause (others) Oo---

(All) We are the champions (Sop, Ten) of the World

(Alt, Bas) We (all) are the champions, my friends

And we'll keep on fighting till the end

We are the champions

We are the champions

Together (Sop only) No time for losers 'cause (others) Oo---

(All) We are the champions (Sop, Alt) of the World

(Ten, Bas) We are the champions (all) of the World
