A Scotsman clad in kilt left the bar one evening fair |
|
And one could tell by how he walked that he'd drunk more than his share |
|
He staggered on until he could no longer keep his feet |
|
Then stumbled off into the grass to sleep beside the street. cho: |

He stumbled off into the grass to sleep beside the street. |
|
Later on two young and lovely girls just happened by, |
|
And one says to the other with a twinkle in her eye "You see yon sleeping Scotsman so young and handsome built I wonder if it's true what they don't wear beneath their kilt." |

I wonder if it's true what they don't wear beneath their kilt. |
|
They crept up to the sleeping |
|
Scotsman quiet as could be |
|
Then 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 |

|
They marveled for a moment then one said we'd best be gone |
|
But let's leave a present for our friend before we move along |
|
As a gift they left a blue silk ribbon tied into a bow |
|
Around the bonnie spar that the |
|
Scot's lifted kilt did show |

|
The Scotsman woke to nature's call and stumbled toward the trees |
|
Behind a bush he lifts his kilt and gawks at what he sees |
|
Then in a startled voice he says to what's before his eyes "Och, Lad I don't know where you've been but I see you won first prize." |
