[Verse] - - - A [C] Scotsman clad in [F] kilt left the [G] bar one evening [C] fair.   [C] One could tell by [F] how he walked, that he'd [C] drunk more than his [G] share.  He [F] stumbled on [C] until he could no [F] longer keep his [G] feet, then he [C] staggered off [F] into the grass to [G] sleep beside the [C] street.
[Chorus] - - - [F] Ring ding diddle iddle I dee oh, [C] ring di diddle I [G] Oh - - - He [C] staggered off [F] into the grass to [G] sleep beside the [C] street.
 
[Verse] - - - [C] About that time two [F] young and lovely [G] lassies happened [C] by.  [C] One says to the [F] other with a [C] twinkle in her [G] eye.  [F]  "See yon sleeping [C] Scotsman, so [F] strong and handsome [G] built.  I [C] wonder if it's [F] true what they don't [G] wear beneath their [C] kilt."
[Chorus] - - - [F] Ring ding diddle iddle I dee oh, [C] ring di diddle I [G] Oh - - - I [C] wonder if it's [F] true what they don't [G] wear beneath their [C] kilt.
 
[Verse] - - - 
They [C] crept up to that [F] sleeping Scotsman [G] quiet as could [C] be,
[C] Lifted up his [F] kilt about an [C] inch so they could [G] see.  [F] And there behold for [C] them to view [F] beneath his Scottish [G] skirt,  Was [C] nothing more than [F] God had graced him [G] with upon his [C] birth. 
[Chorus] - - - [F] Ring ding diddle iddle I dee oh, [C] ring di diddle I [G] Oh - - - Was [C] nothing more than [F] God had graced him [G] with upon his [C] birth.
 
[Verse] - - -   They [C] marveled for a [F] moment then one [G] said we'd best be [C] gone.   [C] "Let's leave a present [F] for our friend [C] before we move [G] along."   [F] As-a-gift they left a [C] blue silk ribbon, [F] tied into a [G] bow,   [C] About the bonnie [F] star the Scots [G] kilt lifting had [C] shown.
[Chorus] - - -  [F] Ring ding diddle iddle I dee oh, [C] ring di diddle I [G] Oh - - - [C] Around the bonnie [F] star the Scots [G] kilt lifting [C] had shown.
 
[Verse] - - -   The [C] Scotsman woke to [F] nature's call and [G] stumbled towards a [C] tree.  [C] Behind a bush he [F] lifts his kilt and [C] gawks at what he [G] sees.   And [F] in a voice of [C] wonderment, at [F] what's before his [G] eyes, "My [C] friend I dunno [F] where you've been but I [G] see you've won first [C] prize." 
[Chorus] - - - [F] Ring ding diddle iddle I dee oh, [C] ring di diddle I [G] Oh - - - "My [C] friend I dunno [F] where you've been but I [G] see you've won first [C] prize."  (go to a high note at end)

OCCASIONALLY CONTINUE WITH THE NEXT VERSES

Our Scottish friend still clad in kilt continued down the street. He hadn't gone 10 yards or more when a girl he chanced to meet.  She said,  "I've heard what's under there.  Please tell me if its so."    He said,  "Why dont you reach right up, and give yourself a go?"

She stuck her hand right up his kilt, and Great was her surprise. She looked up at the Scotsman who had twinkles in his eyes.  She cried, "Why Sir thats gruesome!"  And then she heard him roar.   He said, "If you reach up once again, you'll find it grew some more!"

The Scotman's Hand's were numb with drink.   His head was spinning round. He couldn't get that ribbon off, so homeward he was bound.  His wife she caught a flash of blue as he took off all his clothes; And it piqued her curiosity as well you might suppose.

Well then she asked that Scotsman where he'd been, and just what he'd done.  He said there was a contest at the pub and he had won.   She cried, "You did not show that thing in front of all those men?"   "I did not show it all my love, just enough so I would win."   (go to a high note at end)
