The Scotsman Song

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