My Way

My Way - Chris Mann

And when the end is near

And when I face the final curtain

My friend I'll say it clear

I'll state my case of which I'm certain

I live a life that's full

I travel each and every highway

At any age I'll turn the page

And do it my way

Regrets there'll be a few

But then again too few to mention

It's true what I have to do

I see it through without exemption

I plan each charted course

That I'll take each step

Along life's byway

This much I know each day I grow

I do it my way

Yes there are times

We all go through

When we bite off more than we can chew

But through it all when there is doubt

I don't give up I work it out

And I face it all and I stand tall

And do it my way

I love I laugh I cry

I live a life that's of my choosing

I refuse refuse to live a life

To win at life and never losing

Just to think that's where I matter

Each day I say

Not in a shy way

I must be free free to be me

And do it my way

For what are we

What have you got

It's not yourself

Then you have not

Just say the things you truly feel

And not the words of one who kneels

The records show

God only knows I did it my way

This much I know each day I grow

I do it my WAY
