My Way by George W Bush

"You may not agree with some tough decisions I have made. But I hope you can agree that I was willing to make the tough decisions."

Mr Bush acknowledged some of his actions after September 11 had been controversial but he has stated that by saying this is 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 ev'ry highway

But 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, 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

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!
