Lyrics Bachelor Boy (alternate take) - Cliff Richard

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.
