And Now, The End Is Near,
And So I Face The Final Curtain.
My Friends, I'll Say It Clear;
I'll State My Case Of Which I'm Certain.

I've Lived A Life That's Full -
I've Travelled 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.

I've Loved, I've Laughed And Cried,
I've Had My Fill - My Share Of Losing.
But 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.
