Lyrics Westmeath Bachelor - Foster , Allen
I
am
the
Westmeath
Bachelor
I'm
the
age
of
63
I
don't
intend
to
marry
or
to
raise
a
family
I'm
happy
and
contented
just
to
live
a
single
life
And
that's
the
reason
why
I
don't
intend
to
take
a
wife
With
the
red
stuff
on
her
fingernails
and
the
varnish
on
her
toes
Raddle
on
her
old
fizzhog
and
the
whitewash
on
her
nose
She
can
get
a
fancy
barber
to
shave
her
neck
and
head
And
that's
why
I'm
a
Bachelor
and
I
don't
intend
to
wed
Last
Thursday
at
the
market
in
the
town
of
Mullingar
A
friend
he
introduced
me
to
a
famous
Movie
Star
She
was
married
several
times
before
to
men
of
every
breed
And
she
thought
she
had
her
supper
with
the
Bachelor
from
Westmeath
With
the
red
stuff
on
her
fingernails
and
the
varnish
on
her
toes
Raddle
on
her
old
fizzhog
and
the
whitewash
on
her
nose
She
can
get
a
fancy
barber
to
shave
her
neck
and
head
And
that's
why
I'm
a
Bachelor
and
I
don't
intend
to
wed
I'm
living
with
me
Brother
and
his
little
cat
and
dog
I'm
earning
seventy
pounds
a-week
by
working
on
the
bog
Why
should
I
change
this
life
of
ease
to
one
of
struggle
and
strife
And
that's
another
reason
why
I
never
took
a
wife
With
the
red
stuff
on
her
fingernails
and
the
varnish
on
her
toes
Raddle
on
her
old
fizzhog
and
the
whitewash
on
her
nose
She
can
get
a
fancy
barber
to
shave
her
neck
and
head
And
that's
why
I'm
a
Bachelor
and
I
don't
intend
to
wed
And
that's
why
I'm
a
Bachelor
and
I
don't
intend
to
wed
