ANKA SINGS REVISED ‘MY WAY’ TRIBUTE TO DAVID FOSTER

Singing legend Paul Anka unveiled a new spin on "My Way" during a tribute for music icon David Foster on Saturday at Mandalay Bay.

Anka, who wrote the lyrics to "My Way" for Frank Sinatra's 1969 classic, showed up as a surprise guest at "David Foster & Friends" concert after performing at The Orleans.

Anka's new version mentioned Lindsay Lohan, Viagra, and ex-wives.

Anka also teamed up at Foster's event with Donny Osmond on a duet of "Puppy Love," which Anka wrote and sang in 1960 and Osmond covered in 1972.

Here's "David Foster and Friends/My Way:"


Hello, I just wrapped my show at The Orleans you know
Then I got goin’
(‘Cause) in plain, drivers here are insane, it’s like lane after lane
Of Lindsay Lohan
Can’t zip across the strip, so I yelled this tip
Out on the highway,
“I have to pass, please move your ass
And get out of MY WAY!”

That’s done, now time for fun, like everyone
On this great roster
We’re here to praise and cheer the great career
Of David Foster
Been Friends through trials and trends, remember when
Fans tried to shag ya
Back in the day, they threw lingerie
Now it’s Viagra !

Now on the subject of amore
Hey listen no one’s keeping score
We’ve had 5 wives on cupid’s path
Two wives were mine; you do the math
Right there amid, the “I dos” “we did”
We did it our way

Among the greats who’ve sung, you find them young
To each you lead us
A flair for talent rare, whose next out there,
A singing fetus?
So Foz, we’re here because you’ve earned our applause
Though some can’t stay late
Soon fun must cease, it seems Charice
Has an early play-date.

Your new book, “Hit Man” is “the bomb”
At bookstores and Amazon.com
A little plug, it’s no big fuss
You give so much to all of us
Your music thrives; you’ve scored our lives
(and) We thank you our way.
