And so I face the final curtain
My friends I'll say it clear
I'll state my case of which I'm certain
I've lived a life that's full
I traveled each and every highway
And more much more than this
And then again too few to mention
Though I saw with through without exemption
I planned each chartered course
And more much more than this
When bit off more than I could chew
I faced it all and I stood tall
To say the things he truly feels
And not the words of one who kneels
The record shows I took the blows
