[Verse 1]
G C G D G Well a Scotsman clad in kilt left a bar one evening fair G C G Gsus G D And one could tell by how he walked that he'd drunk more than his share C G C G D He fumbled round until he could no longer keep his feet G D G C G D G Then he stumbled off into the grass to sleep beside the street
[Refrain]
C G D Ring ding diddle diddle I de oh ring di diddly I oh G D G C G D G He stumbled off into the grass to sleep beside the street
[Verse 2]
G C G D G About that time two young and lovely girls just happened by G C G Gsus G D And one says to the other with a twinkle in her eye C G C G D See young sleeping Scotsman so strong and handsome built G D G C G D G I wonder if it's true what they don't wear beneath the kilt
[Refrain]
C G D Ring ding diddle diddle I de oh ring di diddly I oh G D G C G D G I wonder if it's true what they don't wear beneath the kilt
[Verse 3]
G C G D G They crept up on that sleeping Scotsman quiet as could be G C G Gsus G D Lifted up his kilt about an inch so they could see C G C G D And there behold, for them to view, beneath his Scottish skirt G D G C G D G Was nothing more than God had graced him with upon his birth
[Refrain]
C G D Ring ding diddle diddle I de oh ring di diddly I oh G D G C G D G Was nothing more than God had graced him with upon his birth
[Verse 4]
G C G D G They marveled for a moment, then one said we must be gone G C G Gsus G D Let's leave a present for our friend, before we move along C G C G D As a gift they left a blue silk ribbon, tied into a bow G D G C G D G Around the bonnie star, the Scots kilt did lift and show
[Refrain]
C G D Ring ding diddle diddle I de oh ring di diddly I oh G D G C G D G Around the bonnie star, the Scots kilt did lift and show
[Verse 5]
G C G D G Now the Scotsman woke to nature's call and stumbled toward the trees G C G Gsus G D Behind a bush, he lifts his kilt and gawks at what he sees C G C G D And in a startled voice he says to what's before his eyes G D G C G D G O lad I don't know where you been but I see you won first prize
[Refrain]
C G D Ring ding diddle diddle I de oh ring di diddly I oh G D G C G D G O lad I don't know where you been but I see you won first prize
