My Way (Live)

And now the end is near

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 traveled each and every highway

But more much more than this

Regrets, I've had a few

But then again, too few to mention

I did what I had to do

And saw it through with a tax exemption

I planned each charted course

Each careful step along the byway

And more much more than this

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 sit it out

Let the record show

I took a vote

And did it my way

I've loved, I've laughed and cried

I've shed my tears my share of boozing

And now as tears subside

I find it all so confusing

To think I did all that

And may I say not in a shy way

Oh no, oh no not me

(My way)

For what is a man, what has he got?

If not himself, then he has naught

To show the world her stunning heels

And not the words of one who kneels

Let the record show

I took the blows

And did it my way

The record shows

I took the blow

And did it

My way
