Scorpions - You are the champion Lyrics

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

You are the champion - my friend
And you'll keep on fighting till the end
You are the champion
You are the champion
No time for losers
'Cause you are the champion of the world

I've taken my bows
And my curtain calls
You brought me fame and fortune
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

You are the champion - my friend
And you'll keep on fighting till the end
You are the champion
You are the champion
No time for losers
Cause you are the champion of the world
