Description

Elvis Presley (1935 - 1977) was an American singer and actor.

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 travelled each and every 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
I saw it through, without exemption

I planned each chartered course
Each careful step along the by-way
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 laughed, loved, 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
