That`s why I did it my way

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

I 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...
I've loved, I laughed and cried

I 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 himself, then he has naught.

To say the things he truly feels

And not the words of one who kneels

The record shows I took the blows

And did it my way...
Yes, it was my way...
