[Verse 1]
DOh a Scotsman dressed all in his Gkilt left the Abar one evening Dfair
DAnd one could tell by the Gway he walked he'd dDrunk more than his Ashare
GHe staggered 'round until he could no Dlonger keep his Afeet
DAnd he stumbled off Ginto the grass to Asleep beside the Dstreet
[Chorus]
GRing ding diddle dliddle aye E O, Dring aye diddly I AOh
DAnd he stumbled off Ginto the grass to Asleep beside the Dstreet
[Verse 2]
DNow about that time two Gyoung and lovely Agirls were passing Dby
DAnd one looked to the Gother with a Dtwinkle in her Aeye
G"See yon sleeping Scotsman so Dstrong and handsome Abuilt?
DI wonder if it's Gtrue that he wears Anothing beneath his Dkilt"
[Chorus]
GRing ding diddle dliddle aye E O, Dring aye diddly I AOh
DI wonder if it's Gtrue that he wears Anothing beneath his Dkilt"
[Verse 3]
DThey crept up to the Gsleeping Scotsman Aquiet as could Dbe
DAnd lifted up his Gkilt about an Dinch so they could Asee
GLo and behold for them to view Dbeneath the Scottish Askirt
DWas nothing more than GGod had graced him Awith upon his Dbirth
[Chorus]
GRing ding diddle dliddle aye E O, Dring aye diddly I AOh
DWas nothing more than GGod had graced him Awith upon his Dbirth
[Verse 4]
DThey marveled Gfor a minute then they Asaid "we must be Dgone.
DLet's leave him a Gsouvenir Dbefore we travel Aon"
GAs a gift they left a blue silk ribbon Dtied into a Abow
DAround the bonny Gstar the Scotsman's Akilt did lift and Dshow
[Chorus]
GRing ding diddle dliddle aye E O, Dring aye diddly I AOh
DAround the bonny Gstar the Scotsman's Akilt did lift and Dshow
[Verse 5]
DNow the Scotsman rose to GNature's call and Aheaded for the Dtrees
DHe lifted up his Gkilt and then he Dgawks at what he Asees
GAnd in his drunken voice he says to Dwhat's before his Aeyes
D"Oh lad I don't know Gwhere you've been but I Asee you've won first Dprize"
[Chorus]
GRing ding diddle dliddle aye E O, Dring aye diddly I AOh
D"Oh lad I don't know Gwhere you've been but I Asee you've won first Dprize"
[Verse 6]
DOur Scottish friend still Gdressed in kilt Acontinued down the Dstreet
DHe hadn’t gone G10 yards or more when a Dgirl he chanced to Ameet
GShe said, I've heard what’s under there, Dplease tell me is it Aso.
DHe said, just slip your Ghand up miss if you'd Areally like to Dknow.
[Chorus]
GRing ding diddle dliddle aye E O, Dring aye diddly I AOh
DHe said, just slip your Ghand up miss if you'd Areally like to Dknow.
[Verse 7]
DShe put her hand right Gup his kilt and Amuch to her Dsurprise
DThe Scotsman he did Gsmile at her and got a Dtwinkle in his Aeyes.
GShe cried, Why Sir that’s gruesome! DAnd then she heard him Aroar
DIf you reach your Ghand right up again you’ll Afind it’s grew some Dmore!
[Chorus]
GRing ding diddle dliddle aye E O, Dring aye diddly I AOh
DIf you reach your Ghand right up again you’ll Afind it’s grew some Dmore!
[Verse 8]
DNow the Scotsman’s hands were Gnumb with drink and his Ahead was spinning Dround.
DHe couldn’t get that Gribbon off so Dhomeward he was Abound
GHis wife she caught a flash of blue Das he took off his Aclothes
DAnd it piqued her Gcuriosity as one Amight well Dsuppose.
[Chorus]
GRing ding diddle dliddle aye E O, Dring aye diddly I AOh
DAnd it pGiqued heAr curiosDity as one might well suppose.
[Verse 9]
DWell then she asked her Ghusband where he’d Abeen and what he’d Ddone
DHe said there’d Gbeen a contest at the Dpub and that he’d Awon
GShe cried, “did you show that thing offD In front of all thAose men?"
D"I did not show it Gall my love but I Ashowed enough to Dwin."
[Chorus]
GRing ding diddle dliddle aye E O, Dring aye diddly I AOh
D"I did not show it Gall my love but I Ashowed enough to Dwin."
