A Scottish Dinking Song-Story
A Scottish Drinking Song-Story
A Scotsman clad in kilt left the bar one
evening fair, and one could tell by how
he walked that he drank more than his share.
He stumbled of 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 built, I wonder if it’s true they don’t
wear beneath the kilt?”
They crept up on that sleeping Scotsman quiet
as could be, lifted up his kilt about one inch so
they could see, and there behold for them to view
beneath his Scottish shirt was nothing 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 Scots kilt did lift and show.
Now the Scotsman woke to nature’s call and stumbled
towards the trees behind the bushes, he lifts the 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’ve been, but I see
you won first prize.”
