| [00:03.400] |
|
| [00:06.400] |
And now, the end is near; |
| [00:11.400] |
And so I face the final curtain. |
| [00:18.400] |
My friend, I'll say it clear, |
| [00:23.400] |
I'll state my case, of which I'm certain. |
| [00:31.400] |
I've lived a life that's full. |
| [00:37.400] |
I've traveled each and ev'ry highway; |
| [00:43.400] |
And more, much more than this, |
| [00:49.400] |
I did it my way. |
| [00:56.400] |
Regrets, I've had a few; |
| [01:02.400] |
But then again, too few to mention. |
| [01:08.400] |
I did what I had to do |
| [01:14.400] |
And saw it through without exemption. |
| [01:21.400] |
I planned each charted course; |
| [01:27.400] |
Each careful step along the byway, |
| [01:34.400] |
But more, much more than this, |
| [01:39.400] |
I did it my way. |
| [01:45.400] |
Yes, there were times, I'm sure you knew |
| [01:52.400] |
When I bit off more than I could chew. |
| [01:59.400] |
But through it all, when there was doubt, |
| [02:05.400] |
I ate it up and spit it out. |
| [02:11.400] |
I faced it all and I stood tall; |
| [02:18.400] |
And did it my way. |
| [02:24.400] |
I've loved, I've laughed and cried. |
| [02:30.400] |
I've had my fill; my share of losing. |
| [02:37.400] |
And now, as tears subside, |
| [02:43.400] |
I find it all so amusing. |
| [02:50.400] |
To think I did all that; |
| [02:55.400] |
And may I say - not in a shy way, |
| [03:03.400] |
"Oh no, oh no not me, |
| [03:08.400] |
I did it my way". |
| [03:14.400] |
For what is a man, what has he got? |
| [03:21.400] |
If not himself, then he has naught. |
| [03:27.400] |
To say the things he truly feels; |
| [03:34.400] |
And not the words of one who kneels. |
| [03:41.400] |
The record shows I took the blows - |
| [03:48.400] |
And did it my way! |
| [03:57.400] |
|
| [04:14.400] |
Yes, it was my way |
