When I was young, my father said, Son, I've got something to say. And what he told me I'll never forget until my dying day.
(Chorus 1) He said, Son, you'll be a bachelor boy And that's the way to stay. Son, you'll be a bachelor boy until your dying 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.
(Chorus 1)
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 dove.
(Chorus 2) But until then, I'll be a bachelor boy and that's the way I'll stay-yay-yay, Happy to be a bachelor boy until my dying day. Yeah, I'll be a bachelor boy and that's the way I'll stay-yay-yay, Happy to be a bachelor boy until my dying day.
