Goodfellas and a criminal life with no regrets

Goodfellas starts with

And ends with Henry Hill sadness for no longer being a ganster

And Sid Vicious singing 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 with out exemption

I planned each chartered course

Each careful step along the highway

And more, much more than this

I did it my way

For what is a prat, what has he got

When he wears hats and he cannot

Say the things he truly feels

But only the words, of one who kneels

The record shows I took the blows

And did it my way
