Lyrics

Written:Paul Anka/Claude Francois Ravaux/Gilles Thibault
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've traveled each and ev'ry highway;
But 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,
But 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.
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,
'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!

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' ve traveled each and ev' ry highway
But 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,
But 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.
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,
' 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!
