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 exemption
I planned each chartered course
Each careful step along the byway
And more much more than this
I did it my way
Yes there were times
I'll 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 out
I faced 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 may 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 herself then he has naught
To say the things he truly feels
And not the words of one who kneels
And did it my way
Yes I did it my way
