Lyrics Bachelor Boy (1998 Remastered Version) - Cliff Richard , The Shadows

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
