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 could be.
But I remember´d 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 propably 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.
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.
