Dorothy Squires - My Way Lyrics

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 every 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
I saw it through without exception

I planned each charted course
Each careful step along the byway
But more, much more than this
I did it my way

But, there were times, and I'm sure you knew
When I bit off more than I could chew
And through it all when there was doubt
I ate it up and spit it out
I faced it all but I stood tall
And I did it my way

I've lived, I've laughed and cried
I've had my fails, 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 had do 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
But I did it my way
The record show I took the blows
But I did it my way
