My Way

And now the end is near as 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've 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 exemption

I took my time chartered course each careful step along the byway

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 did it all when there was doubt I did it up and spit it out

I did 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 losing

And now as tears subside I find it all so amusing

To think I did all that and let me say not in a shy way

Oh no oh no not me I did it my way

What is a man and what has he got if not himself then he has not

To say the things he truly feels and not the worlds of one who kneels

My record shows I took the blows I did it my way

I did it my way
