Little man you've had a busy life Guess I've had my share of joy and stride They gave me the rules And I really tried But somehow I'm not satisfied So my way, this time it's gonna be My way, this time it's got to be Just what I feel just what I chose Mine if I win, mine if I lose But my way no more the shy little guy way No more uncertainty This time it's me without a doubt I'm gonna see what I'm all about And I'm gonna do it my way Stop the music I wanna lead the band Maybe I'll waste and fall on my face But I wanna be in command My way they'll be no compromise My way I'm gonna fall or rise I got the plan and I got the drive I'll be a man whose glad he's alive Glad to live my life my way
