Born To Be A Bachelor

Let me introduce meself, Me name 'tis Paddy Green I am me mammy's pride and joy A fine oul' buachaillin! I come from the county Waterford, Near the village of Tramore, I've been living at home since I was one, And now I'm forty-four! Chorus: I was born to be a Bachelor, I'll never walk down the aisle, Me ma still makes me breakfast, Livin' it up in style, Girls, ye'll never catch me, Stayin' single, is the plan Born to be a Bachelor, Sure I'm yer only man! Well it's into town on the Saturday night, Me and the boys go on a spree, You can go down to the disco, and have a drink with me! With the ladies on the dance floor, I'm a wild and crazy guy, With me white socks and me black suede shoes, and me thin red leather tie! I was born to be a Bachelor, I'll never walk down the aisle, Me ma still makes me breakfast, Livin' it up in style, Girls, ye'll never catch me, Stayin' single, is the plan Born to be a Bachelor, Sure I'm yer only man! Then it's off to ma*s next morning, I'm wearin' me Sunday best, I've got no wife to fight with, So I've no sins to confess! After church, the married men go home, oh what a shame! 'Cause I'm scullin' da pints down at the pub I'm watchin' the football game! I was born to be a Bachelor, I'll never walk down the aisle, Me ma still makes me breakfast, Livin' it up in style, Girls, ye'll never catch me, Stayin' single, is the plan Born to be a Bachelor, Sure I'm yer only man! I'm a ramblin' ranter, I'm a rollin' stone, I'm a galavanter' g'wan so leave me alone, If yer out to get married, you'll get no joy, Cause I was born and bred to be a bachelor boy! Now up in Lisdoonvarna, They've an old matchmaker's fair, The girls all go a huntin' So you'll never see me there! I have a Russian sweetheart, A fine oul' thing is she! She's out in Vladivostok And that's close enough for me! I was born to be a Bachelor, I'll never walk down the aisle, Me ma still makes me breakfast, Livin' it up in style, Girls, ye'll never catch me, Stayin' single, is the plan Born to be a Bachelor, Sure I'm yer only man!
