When i was young my father said
"son i have something to say"
And what he told me i'll never forget
Until my dyin' day
He said "son you are a bachelor boy
And that's the way to stay
Son you be a bachelor boy
Until your dyin' day?
When i was sixteen i fell in love
With a girl as sweet as can be
But i remembered just in time
What my daddy said to me
He said "son you are a bachelor boy
And that's the way to stay
Son you be a bachelor boy
Until your dyin' day?
As time goes by i probably will
Meet a girl and fall in love
Then i'll get married have a wife and a child
And they'll be my turtle doves
But until then i'll be a bachelor boy
And that's the way i'll stay
Happy to be a bachelor boy
Until my dyin' day
Yeah i'll be a bachelor boy
And that's the way i'll stay
Happy to be a bachelor boy
Until my dyin' day
