Lyrics
And now the end is nearSo I face the final curtainMy friend, I’ll say it clearI’ll state my case of which I’m certain
I’ve lived a life that’s fullI’ve traveled each and every highwayAnd more, much more than thisI did it my way
Regrets, I’ve had a fewBut then again, too few to mentionI did what I had to doAnd saw it through without exception
I planned each charted courseEach careful step along the bywayAnd more, much more than thisI did it my way
Yes, there were times, I’m sure you knowThat I bit off more than I could chewBut through it all when there was doubtI ate it up and spit it outI faced it all and I stood tallAnd did it my way
I’ve loved, I’ve laughed and criedI’ve had my fill, my share of losingAnd now as tears subsideI find it all so amusingTo think I did all thatAnd may I say, not in a shy wayOh, no, no not meI did it my way
For what is a man, what has he gotIf not himself, then he has notTo say the words he truly feelsAnd not the words of one who kneelsThe record shows I took the blowsAnd did it my way
