| A Scotsman clad in kilt left the bar one evening fair
|
| And one could tell by how he walked he’d drunk more than his share
|
| He fumbled down until he could no longer keep his feet
|
| Then stumbled off into the grass to sleep beside the street.
|
| Ring ding diddle diddle i de o Ring di diddle 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 says 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 their kilt.
|
| Ring ding diddle diddle i de o Ring di diddle i o I wonder if it’s true what they don’t wear beneath their kilt.
|
| They crept up to the sleeping Scotsman quiet as could be Then lifted up his kilt about an inch so they could see
|
| And there behold for them to view beneath his Scottish skirt
|
| Was nothing but what God had graced him with upon his birth
|
| Ring ding diddle diddle i de o Ring di diddle i o Was nothing there but what God gave upon his birth
|
| They marveled for a moment then one said we’d best be gone
|
| Let’s leave a present for our friend before we move along
|
| They took a blue silk ribbon and they tied it in a bow
|
| Around the bonnie spar the Scot’s lifted kilt did show
|
| Ring ding diddle diddle i de o Ring di diddle i o Around the bonnie spar that the Scot’s lifted kilt did show
|
| The Scotsman woke to nature’s call and stumbled toward a tree
|
| Behind a bush he lifts his kilt and gawks at what he sees
|
| Then in a startled voice he says to what’s before his eyes
|
| «Lad I don’t know where you’ve been but I see you won first
|
| prize»
|
| Ring ding diddle diddle i de o Ring di diddle i o
|
| «Lad I don’t know where you’ve been but I see you won first prize» |
