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
Oh 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 ooh
Each charted course oooh
Each careful step oooh
Along the byway
Oh and more oooh
Much more than this ooh
I did it my way
Yes there were times
Haaaa
I'm sure you knew haa
When I bit off haa
More than I could chew hhaa
But through it all haa
When there was doubt haa
I ate it up haa
And I spit it out haa
I faced it all haa
And I stood tall haa
And did it my way
I've loved
I've laughed and cried
I had my fill
My share of losing
And now
As tears subside
I find it all
So amusing
To think ooh
I did all that ooh
And may I say
Not in a shy way
Oh no ooh
Oh no not me ooh
I did it my way
For what is a man haa
What has he got haa
If not himself haa
Then he has naught haa
To say the words haa
He truly feels
And not the words
Of one who kneels
The record shows
I took the blows
And did it my way
The record shows
I took the blows
And did it my way
