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 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 planned each charted 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 through it all,
when there was doubt,
I ate it up
and spit it out.
I faced it all
and I stood tall
And did it my way
The what is a man,
The what he's got
If not himself,
To say he naught
To say the things he truly feels
And not the words
And one of who kneels
The record shows
I took the blows,
And not the words
And one of who kneels
The record shows
I took the blows,
And did it my way
