Well a Scotsman clad in kilt left a bar one evening fair
E A E B
And one could tell by how he walked that he?d drunk more than his share
A E A B
He fumbled round until he could no longer keep his feet
E A B E
Then he stumbled off into the grass to sleep beside the street
A E B
Ring ding diddle iddle I de oh ring di diddly I oh

He stumbled off into the grass to sleep beside the street
E A B E
About that time two young and lovely girls just happened by
E A E B
And one says to the other with a twinkle in her eye
A E A B
?See yon sleeping Scotsman so strong and handsome built
E A B E
I wonder if it?s true what they don?t wear beneath the kilt
A E B
Ring ding diddle iddle I de oh ring di diddly I oh

I wonder if it?s true what they don?t wear beneath the kilt
E A B E
They crept up on that sleeping Scotsman quiet as could be
E A E B
?Lifted up his kilt about an inch so they could see
A E A B
?And there behold for them to view beneath his Scottish skirt
E A B E
?Was nothing more than God had graced him with upon his birth
A E B
Ring ding diddle iddle I de oh ring di diddly I oh

They marveled for a moment then one said we must be gone
E A E B
?Let?s leave a present for our friend before we move along
A E A B
As a gift they left a blue silk ribbon tied into a bow
E A B E
Around the bonnie star the Scots kilt did lift and show
A E B
?Ring ding diddle iddle I de oh ring di diddly I oh

Now the Scotsman woke to nature?s call and stumbled toward the trees
E A E B
Behind a bush he lifts his kilt and gawks at what he sees
A E A B
?And in a startled voice he says to what?s before his eyes
E A B E
O lad I don?t know where you been but I see you won first prize
A E B
Ring ding diddle iddle I de oh ring di diddly I oh
E A B E
?O lad I don?t know where you been but I see you won first prize
