[VERSE 1]
[D]Oh a Scotsman dressed all in his [G]kilt left the [A]bar one evening [D]fair
[D]And one could tell by the [G]way he walked he'd d[D]runk more than his [A]share
[G]He staggered 'round until he could no [D]longer keep his [A]feet
[D]And he stumbled off [G]into the grass to [A]sleep beside the [D]street
[CHORUS]
[G]Ring ding diddle dliddle aye E O, [D]ring aye diddly I [A]Oh
[D]And he stumbled off [G]into the grass to [A]sleep beside the [D]street
[VERSE 2]
[D]Now about that time two [G]young and lovely [A]girls were passing [D]by
[D]And one looked to the [G]other with a [D]twinkle in her [A]eye
[G]"See yon sleeping Scotsman so [D]strong and handsome [A]built?
[D]I wonder if it's [G]true that he wears [A]nothing beneath his [D]kilt"
[CHORUS]
[G]Ring ding diddle dliddle aye E O, [D]ring aye diddly I [A]Oh
[D]I wonder if it's [G]true that he wears [A]nothing beneath his [D]kilt"
[VERSE 3]
[D]They crept up to the [G]sleeping Scotsman [A]quiet as could [D]be
[D]And lifted up his [G]kilt about an [D]inch so they could [A]see
[G]Lo and behold for them to view [D]beneath the Scottish [A]skirt
[D]Was nothing more than [G]God had graced him [A]with upon his [D]birth
[CHORUS]
[G]Ring ding diddle dliddle aye E O, [D]ring aye diddly I [A]Oh
[D]Was nothing more than [G]God had graced him [A]with upon his [D]birth
[VERSE 4]
[D]They marveled [G]for a minute then they [A]said "we must be [D]gone.
[D]Let's leave him a [G]souvenir [D]before we travel [A]on"
[G]As a gift they left a blue silk ribbon [D]tied into a [A]bow
[D]Around the bonny [G]star the Scotsman's [A]kilt did lift and [D]show
[CHORUS]
[G]Ring ding diddle dliddle aye E O, [D]ring aye diddly I [A]Oh
[D]Around the bonny [G]star the Scotsman's [A]kilt did lift and [D]show
[VERSE 5]
[D]Now the Scotsman rose to [G]Nature's call and [A]headed for the [D]trees
[D]He lifted up his [G]kilt and then he [D]gawks at what he [A]sees
[G]And in his drunken voice he says to [D]what's before his [A]eyes
[D]"Oh lad I don't know [G]where you've been but I [A]see you've won first [D]prize"
[CHORUS]
[G]Ring ding diddle dliddle aye E O, [D]ring aye diddly I [A]Oh
[D]"Oh lad I don't know [G]where you've been but I [A]see you've won first [D]prize"
[VERSE 6]
[D]Our Scottish friend still [G]dressed in kilt [A]continued down the [D]street
[D]He hadn’t gone [G]10 yards or more when a [D]girl he chanced to [A]meet
[G]She said, I've heard what’s under there, [D]please tell me is it [A]so.
[D]He said, just slip your [G]hand up miss if you'd [A]really like to [D]know.
[CHORUS]
[G]Ring ding diddle dliddle aye E O, [D]ring aye diddly I [A]Oh
[D]He said, just slip your [G]hand up miss if you'd [A]really like to [D]know.
[VERSE 7]
[D]She put her hand right [G]up his kilt and [A]much to her [D]surprise
[D]The Scotsman he did [G]smile at her and got a [D]twinkle in his [A]eyes.
[G]She cried, Why Sir that’s gruesome! [D]And then she heard him [A]roar
[D]If you reach your [G]hand right up again you’ll [A]find it’s grew some [D]more!
[CHORUS]
[G]Ring ding diddle dliddle aye E O, [D]ring aye diddly I [A]Oh
[D]If you reach your [G]hand right up again you’ll [A]find it’s grew some [D]more!
[VERSE 8]
[D]Now the Scotsman’s hands were [G]numb with drink and his [A]head was spinning [D]round.
[D]He couldn’t get that [G]ribbon off so [D]homeward he was [A]bound
[G]His wife she caught a flash of blue [D]as he took off his [A]clothes
[D]And it piqued her [G]curiosity as one [A]might well [D]suppose.
[CHORUS]
[G]Ring ding diddle dliddle aye E O, [D]ring aye diddly I [A]Oh
[D]And it p[G]iqued he[A]r curios[D]ity as one might well suppose.
[VERSE 9]
[D]Well then she asked her [G]husband where he’d [A]been and what he’d [D]done
[D]He said there’d [G]been a contest at the [D]pub and that he’d [A]won
[G]She cried, "did you show that thing off[D] In front of all th[A]ose men?"
[D]"I did not show it [G]all my love but I [A]showed enough to [D]win."
[CHORUS]
[G]Ring ding diddle dliddle aye E O, [D]ring aye diddly I [A]Oh
[D]"I did not show it [G]all my love but I [A]showed enough to [D]win."
