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 stumbled on until he could no longer keep his feet Then staggered off into the grass to sleep beside the street. Ring ding diddle diddle i de o Ring di diddle i o de He staggered off into the grass to sleep beside the street. Later on two young and lovely girls just happened by, And one says to the other with a twinkle in her eye You 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 dill 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 Lifted up his kilt above the waist 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 dirth There was nothing there but what God gave upon his birth They marveled for a moment then one said we'd best be gone But 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 star of the Scot's lifted kilt did show Ring ding diddle diddle i de o Ring di diddle i o doh Around the bonnie star of the Scot's lifted kilt did show The Scotsman woke to nature's call and stumbled toward a trees 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 He said, "My friend I don't where you've been but I see you won first prize" Ring ding diddle diddle i de o Ring di diddle i o die He said, "My friend I don't know where you've been but I see you won first prize"
