The Scotsman<br>
<br>
************<br>
<br>
_Words & Music:<br>
<br>
I wonder if it's true what they don't wear beneath the kilt."<br>
<br>
_Ring ding diddle dee dee i dee oh,<br>
<br>
Ring di deedle oh dill;<br>
I wonder if it' true what they don't wear beneath the kilt._<br>
<br>
They creeped up to the sleeping Scotsman quiet as could be;<br>
<br>
lifted up his kilt above the waist so they could see...<br>
There, behold, for them to view beneath his Scottish skirt<br>
was nothing but what God had graced him with upon his birth.<br>
<br>
_Ring ding deedle dee dee i dee oh,<br>
<br>
Ring di deedle no dirth!<br>
Nothing but what God had graced him with upon his birth,_<br>
<br>
Well, they marveled for a moment, then one said, "We'd best be gone..<br>
But let's leave a present for our friend before we move along."<br>
<br>
So as a gift they left a blue silk ribbon tied into a bow<br>
Around the bonnie star of the Scot's kilt lifting show.<br>
<br>
_Ring ding deedle dee dee i dee oh,<br>
<br>
Ring di deedle oh dough;<br>
Around the bonnie star of the Scot's kilt lifting show._<br>
<br>
Well the Scotsman woke to nature's call and stumbled toward the trees.<br>
Behind a bush he lifts his kilt and gawks at what he sees.<br>
<br>
Then in a startled voice he says to what's before his eyes...<br>
"My friend, I don't know where you've been but I see you won first prize!"<br>
<br>
_Ring ding deedle dee dee i dee oh,<br>
<br>
Ring di deedle oh di;<br>
"Friend, I don't know where you've been but I see you won first prize!"_<br>
