My Way

 

And now the end is near
And so I face the final curtain

My friend I'll say it clear
I'll state my case of which I'm certain

I've lived a life that's full
I traveled each and every highway

and more much more than this
I did it my way.
 

 
Regrets, I've had a few
But then again too few to mention

I did what I had to do
And saw it through without exception

 

I planned each chartered course
Each careful step alone the by way

 

And more much more than this
I did it my way.
 

 
Yes there were times I'm sure you knew
When I bit off more than I could chew

But through it all when there was doubt
I ate it up and spit it out

I face it all and I stood tall
And did it my way.
 

I've loved, I've laughed and cried
I've had my fill my share of loosing

And the now as tears subside
I find it all so amusing

 

To think I did all that and might I say
Not in a shy way

oh no, oh no not me
I did it my way.
 

 
For what is a man what has he got
If not himself then he has not

To say the things he truly feels
And not the words of one who kneels

The record shows I took the blows
And did it my way

The record shows I took the blows
And did it my way.
