My way lyrics

And now, the end is near

And so I got to face the final curtain

My friends, I'll say it clear

And 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

Yes, 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 planned each charted course

Each careful footstep along the byway, yeah

And more, much more than this

I did 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 all and spat it out

I faced it all and I stood tall

And did it my way

I've laughed and cried

Had my fill, my share of losing

And now, as tears subside

Found it all so amusing

To think I did all that

And may I say, not in a sly way

Oh no-no-no, no, not me

I did it my way

What is a man, what he got?

If not himself, then he has naught

To say the things he truly feels

Not the words of one who kneels

The record shows, I took the blows

And did it my way
