My Way Elvis Presley 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 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 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
