The Drunk Scotsman

     G                C           
Well Scotsman clad in kilt left 
  D               G
the bar one evening fair
G                 C              
One could tell by how he walked, 
          G                   D
that he'd drunk more than his share.
   C             G               
He stumbled on until he could no 
C               D
longer keep his feet,
        G              C          
Then he staggered off into the 
      D                G
grass to sleep beside the street.


[Chorus]

C                                
Ring ding diddle iddle I dee oh, 
G                D
ring di diddle I Oh
   G              C                
He staggered off into the grass to 
D                G
sleep beside the street.


[Verse]

     G       C                D  
Later on two young and lovely 
                 G
girls just happened by,
G               C            G  
One says to the other with a 
            D
twinkle in her eye.
C                G            C 
See yon sleeping Scotsman, so 
                  D
strong and handsome built,
     G           C            
I wonder if it's true what they 
        D               G
don't wear beneath the kilt.


[Chorus]

     G           C            
I wonder if it's true what they 
        D               G
don't wear beneath the kilt.


[Verse]

     G                C      
They crept up to that sleeping 
           D              G
Scotsman quiet as could be,
G             C              G  
Lifted up his kilt above the 
                 D
waist so they could see.
C                    G           
And there behold for them to view
    C                 D
 beneath his Scottish skirt,
     G                C           
Was nothing more than God had 
       D             G
graced him with upon his birth.


[Chorus]

C                                
Ring ding diddle iddle I dee oh, 
G                D
ring di diddle I Oh
     G                C           
Was nothing more than God had 
       D             G
graced him with upon his birth.


[Verse]

     G              C             
They marveled for a moment then 
  D                 G
one said we'd best be gone,
G                     C          
Let's leave a present for our 
    G              D
friend before we move along.
C                     G      
As a gift they left a blue silk 
           C           D
ribbon, tied into a bow,
     G            C               
Around the bonnie star of the 
  D            G
Scots kilt lifting show.


[Chorus]

C                                
Ring ding diddle iddle I dee oh, 
G                D
ring di diddle I Oh
     G            C               
Around the bonnie star of the 
  D            G
Scots kilt lifting show.


[Verse]

     G                C           
The Scotsman woke to nature's call
     D                  G
 and stumbled towards a tree,
G                C               
Behind a bush he lifts his kilt 
   G                D
and gawks at what he sees.
C                  G             
Then in a startled voice he says 
   C                 D
to what's before his eyes,
     G            C               
My friend I dunno where you've 
        D                    G
been but I see you've won first 
prize.


[Chorus]

C                                
Ring ding diddle iddle I dee oh, 
G                D
ring di diddle I Oh
     G            C               
My friend I dunno where you've 
        D                    G
been but I see you've won first 
prize.
