(男)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 every highway
And more, much more than this
I did it my way
(女)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
(男)I planned each charted course
(女)Each careful step along the byway
(男)And more,
(女)much more than this
(男)I did it
(女)my way
(男)Yes, there were times
(女)I'm sure you knew
(男)When I bit off
(女)more than I could chew
(男)But through it all,
(女)when there was doubt
(男)I ate it up
(女)and spit it out
(男)I faced it all
(女)and I stood tall
(男)And did it
(女)my way
(男)I've lived a life that's full
I've traveled each and every highway
And more, much more than this
I did it my way
(女)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
(男)To think I did all that
(女)And may I say - not in a shy way
(男)"Oh no,
(女)oh no not me
(男)I did it
(女)my way"
(男)For what is a man,
(女)what has he got?
(男)If not himself,
(女)then he has naught
(男)To say the things
(女)he truly feels
(男)And not the words
(女)of one who kneels
(男)The record shows
(女)I took the blows
(男)And did it
(女)my way !
