My Way Songtext / Lyric

I've been a worker and a dealer
Sometimes a bum
I've been busted and disgusted
I've been put down
I've seen so much of the bottom
Sometimes I wonder
Why I'm still hanging round

I lay awake at night without sleeping
But I wait for your knock on my door
But now I know when it is coming
Baby I just can't wait anymore

And when the morning comes
I'll be out on my highway
After everything is said and done
Baby I'm gonna do this thing my way

Well I've been around a long time
And I want to be here for some more
Sometimes all this just makes me wonder
What am I doing it for
But I tell you I can stand up for love
And I can stand by forgiving
And I can stand for the courage
That tells me true loving is living

And when the morning comes
I'll be out on my highway
After everything is said and done
Baby I'm gonna do this thing my way
I've been a worker
And a dealer
Sometimes a bum
Oh and yeah I forgot to say
That I've been a clown
I have been loved by someone
And I have been put down
Yes I have been seen crying
I've been heard to say that I just can't win
It always turns out in the long run
That I turn around and try again

And when the morning comes
I'll be out on that highway
After everything is said and done
Baby I'm gonna do this thing my way
Yeah I'm gonna do this thing my way
Yeah I'm gonna do this thing my way
