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 be a batchelor boy
And that's the way to stay
So you be a batchelor boy
Ubtil 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
 
 

He said, Son you be a batchelor boy
And that's the way to stay
So you be a batchelor boy
Ubtil your dying 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 batchelor boy
And that's the way to stay
Happy to be a batchelor boy
Until my dying day
Yeah, I'll be a batchelor boy
And that's the way I'll stay
Happy to be a batchelor boy
Until my dying....daaaay
