Elvis Presley - My Way

Текст песни Elvis Presley - 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 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 exemption. 

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 (not "know") 
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, 
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.(not "NOT") 
To say the words he truly feels; 
And not the words of one who kneels. 
The record shows I took the blows - 
And did it my way!
