Herman Brood - My Way

And now the end is nearAnd so I face the final curtainMy friends, I say it clearI'll state my case of which I'm certainI've loved a life that's fullI've travelled each and every highwayAnd more, much more than thisI did it my wayRegrets, I had a fewBut then again, too few to mentionI did what, what I had to doAnd saw it through without exemptionI planned each chattered courseEach careful stap along the highwayAnd more, much more than thatI did it my wayYes, there were timesI'm sure you knewWhen I bit more off then I could chewBut through it all when there was doubtI ate it up and spitt it outI faced it all and I stood tallAnd did it my wayI've loved, I've laughed and criedI've had my fill, my share of losingAnd now as tears subsideI find it all so amusingTo think, I did all thatAnd may I say, not in a shy wayOh no, oh no not meI did it my wayFor what is a manWhat has he gotIf not himself than he has naughtTo say the words he truly feelsAnd not the words of one who kneelsThe record shows, I took the blows and did it my wayOh no, oh no not meI did it my way
