Well Scotsman clad in kilt left a bar one evening fair
and one could tell by how he walked
that he'd drunk more than his share.
He fumbled 'round until he could no longer keep his feet
and he stumbled off into the grass to sleep beside the street.
Ring Ding Diddle Diddle Ai Dee Oh
Ring Dai Diddley Ai Oh
He stumbled off into the grass to sleep beside the street

About that time two young and lovely girls just happened by
one says to the other with a twinkle in her eye
see yon sleeping Scotsman, so strong and handsome build
I wonder if it's true what they don't wear beneath the kilt
Ring Ding Diddle Diddle Ai Dee Oh
Ring Da Diddle Ai Oh!
I wonder if it's true what they don't wear beneath the kilt

They crept up on that sleeping Scotsman, quiet as could be
lifted up his kilt about an inch so they could see
and there behold for them to view beneath his scotish skirt
was nothin' more than God had graced him with upon his birth
Ring Ding Diddle Diddle Ai Dee Oh!
Ring Da Diddleley, Ai Oh!
Was nothin more than 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 into a bow
around the bonnie star the Scot's kilt did lift and show
Ring Diong Diddle Diddle Ai Dee Oh!
Ring Dai Diddle Ai Oh!
Around the bonnie star the Scot's kilt did lift and show.

Now the Scotsman woke to nature's call
and stumbled towards 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,
Oh, Lad I don't know where you been, but I see you won first prize
Ring Ding Diddle Diddle Ai Dee Oh!
Ring Dai Diddley Ai Oh
Ah Lad I don't know where you been, but I see you won first prize!

HEHEHEHEHEHE! That was sooooo funny!

Jackie hasn't said anything because it's autobiographical. Okay, okay calm down, just kidding. Maybe.
