When I was young my father said, 'Son, I have something to say.'
And what he told me I'll never forget until my dying day.
he said...
'Son, you are 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 daddy said to me. He said...
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, that's the way I'll stay,
happy to be a bachelor boy, until my dying day, Yeah...
I'll be a bachelor boy, that's the way I'll stay.
Happy to be a bachelor boy, until my dying day.
