I’m A Scotsman
Sung to "The Lumberjack Song"    From the SCA  All I know of the Lumberjack Song is the chorus... does anyone know the tune to the verses???   There are so many of us who parade around in kilts that I think this song would be a real hit at a bardic.

Visit the SCA Minstrel Site

Spoken:  I never wanted to be this persona in the first place!
I... I wanted to be...    A Scotsman!

Running from Hillside to Hillside! Wearing a kilt regimental style!!
With a beautiful lass by my side!
We'd sing! Sing! Sing!

Oh, I'm a Scotsman, and I'm okay,
I sleep all night and I work all day.

CHORUS:   Oh, he's a Scotsman, and he's okay,
He sleeps all night and he works all day.

I suck down mead, I heard my sheep,
I wear a kilt all day.
I wear it regimental,
And I'd prove it in any way.

Clansmen: He sucks down mead, he heards his sheep,
He wears a kilt all day.
He wears it regimental,
And he'd prove it in any way.        CHORUS

I sucks down mead, I herd my sheep,
I like to skip and jump.
Sometimes I get real lonely,
So I call my wooly lass.

Clansmen: He sucks down mead, he heards his sheep,
He likes to skip and jump.
Sometimes He gets real lonely
So he calls his.... Wooly Lass???????    CHORUS

I suck down mead, I wear a kilt,
A garter and a dirk.
I wish I'd been a Norman
Just like my dear papa.

Clansmen: He sucks down mead, he wears a kilt
a Garter?? and a dirk
He wish he'd been a Norman
Just like his dear papa       CHORUS

All: He's a Scotsman, and he's okaaaaaaayyy.....
