The Scotsman

Well, a Scotsman clad in kilt left a bar one evening fair,
And one could tell by how he walked that he'd drunk more than his share.
He stumbled 'round until he could no longer keep his feet,
Then he stumbled off into the grass to sleep beside the street.
Ring-ding-diddle-diddle-i-dee-o, ring-di-diddley-i-o!
He stumbled off into the grass to sleep beside the street.

About that time, two young and lovely girls just happened by,
And one said to the other with a twinkle in her eye,
"See yon sleeping Scotsman, so strong and handsome built,
I wonder if it's true what they don't wear beneath the kilt."
Ring-ding-diddle-diddle-i-dee-o, ring-di-diddley-i-o!
"I wonder if it's true what they don't wear beneath the kilt."

They crept up on that sleeping Scotsman quiet as could be,
And lifted up his kilt about an inch so they could see.
And there behold for them to view beneath his Scottish skirt,
Twas nothing more than God had graced him with upon his birth.
Ring-ding-diddle-diddle-i-dee-o, ring-di-diddley-i-o!
Twas nothing more than God had graced him with upon his birth.

They marvelled for a moment, then one said, "We must be gone.
But let's leave a present for our friend, before we move along."
As a gift they left a blue silk ribbon, tied into a bow,
Around the bonny-star the Scotsman's kilt did lift and show.
Ring-ding-diddle-diddle-i-dee-o, ring-di-diddley-i-o!
Around the bonny-star the Scotsman's kilt did lift and show.

Now the Scotsman woke to nature's call and stumbled toward the trees.
Behind a bush, he lifts his kilt and gawks at what he sees.
And in a startled voice he says to what's before his eyes,
"Oh, lad I don't know where ya been, but I see you won first prize."
Ring-ding-diddle-diddle-i-dee-o, ring-di-diddley-i-o!
"Oh, lad I don't know where ya been, but I see you won first prize."
