Elvis Presley - My Way

anna8elvis

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 exception.

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


"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!
