Bachelor Boy

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
