Under The Scotsman's Kilt Lyrics


Irish Rovers Under The Scotsman's Kilt


Well a Scottsman clad in kilt left a bar one evening
fair

And one could tell by how he walked the he'd drunk more
than his share

He fumbled 'round until he could no long keep his feet

And he stumbled off in to the grass to sleep beside the
street



Ring-ding didle lidle la deo

Ring dye didley eye oh

He stumbled off in to the grass to sleep beside the
street



About the thime two young and lovely girls just
happened by

One says to the other, with a twinkle in her eye

"See yon sleeping Scottsman, so strong a handsome built

I wonder if it's true what they don't wear beneath the
kilt"



Ring-ding didle lidle la deo

Ring dye didley eye oh

I wonder if it's true what they don't wear beneath the
kilt



They krept up on the sleeping Scottsman quite as could
be

They lifted up his kilt about an inch so they could see

And there, behold, for them to view beneath his
Scottish skirt

Was nothing more than God had graced him with upon his
birth



Ring-ding didle lidle la deo

Ring dye didley eye oh

Was nothing more htna God had graced him with upon his
birth



They marveled for a moment, then one said "We must be
gone.

Let's leave a present for our friend before we move
along"

As a gift they left a blue silk ribbon tied in to a bow

Around the bonnie star the Scotts kilt did lift and
show



Ring-ding didle lidle la deo

Ring dye didley eye oh

Around the bonnie star the scotts kilt did lift and
show



Now the Scottsman woke to natures call and stumbled for
the trees

Behind the bush he lifts his kilt, and gawks at what he
sees

And in a startled voice he says, to what's before his
eyes,

"Lad, I don't know where you;ve been, but I see you've
won first prize"



Ring-ding didle lidle la deo

Ring dye didley eye oh

Lad, I don't know where you've been, but I see you've
won first prize
