INTRO: |C--Bb| (repeated several times)

C
Let me introduce me self,
Me name is Paddy Green
I am me mammy�s pride and joy
A fine ol buachaillin!
I come from the county Waterford,
Near the village of Tramore,
I�ve been living at home since I was one,
    F              G
And now I�m forty-four!

REFRAIN:
      F 
I was born to be a Bachelor,
      Bb                  C
I�ll never walk down the aisle,
   F                           
Me mam still makes me breakfast,
 Bb               C
Livin it up in style,
Bb
Girls, you'll never catch me,
  F
Stayin single, is the plan
I was born to be a Bachelor,
   C              F
Sure I�m yer only man! Hah?

(intro)

Into town on the Saturday night,
All the boys go on a spree,
If you come down to the disco,
You can have a drink with me!
With the ladies on the dance floor,
I�m a wild and crazy guy,
In me white socks and me black suede shoes,
and me thin red leather tie!

(Refrain)

Then it�s off to mass 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
While watchin the football game!

(Refrain)

    C                       Bb
I�m a ramblin ranter, I�m a rollin stone,
    C                      Bb
I�m a galavanter go-on an leave me alone,
    C                         Bb
If yer out to get married, you�ll get no joy,
    C                         (no chord)
Cause I was born and bred to be a bachelor boy!

(short intro)

Up in Lisdoonvarna,
They�ve an old matchmaker�s fair,
The girls all go a huntin
So you�ll never see me there!
I�ve got a Russian sweetheart,
A fine ole thing is she!
She�s out in Vladivostok
And that�s close enough for me!

Refrain (2X)
