Based on the song Drunken Scotsman.

While on the road to Livingston, you come across a Scotsman passed out on the side of the road. You have heard tales of what Scotsman wear beneath the kilt or rather don't wear. In the song its a pair of young and lovely lassies, but I'll leave the POV open to anyone and if you have a traveling companion or not.

Full lyrics:

A Scotsman clad in kilt

Left a bar one evening fair

One could tell by how he walked

He′d drunk more than his share

He stumbled on until he could

No longer keep his feet

And staggered off into the grass

To sleep beside the street

Ring ding deedle-eedle-i-dee-o

Ring die-deedle-o-dee

Staggered off into the grass

To sleep beside the street

Later on, two young and lovely

Girls just happed 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

What they don′t wear beneath the kilt."

Ring ding deedle-eedle-i-dee-o

Ring die-deedle-o-dil

Wonder if it's true

What they don't wear beneath the kilt

They creeped up to the sleeping Scotsman

Quiet as could be

Lifted up his kilt

Above the waist so they could see

And there, behold, for them to view

Beneath his Scottish skirt

Was nothing but what God

Had graced him with upon his birth

Ring ding deedle-eedle-i-dee-o

Ring die-deedle-o-der

Nothing but what 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."

So as a gift they left a blue silk ribbon

Tied into a bow

Around the bonny star

Of the Scot's kilt-lifting show

Ring ding deedle-eedle-i-dee-o

Ring die-deedle-o-doe

Around the bonny star

Of the Scot′s kilt-lifting show

The Scotsman woke to nature's call

And stumbled toward the trees

Behind a bush he lifts his kilt

And he gawks at what he sees

Then in a startled voice he says

To what′s before his eyes:

"My friend, I don't know where ya been

But I see you won first prize!"

Ring ding deedle-eedle-i-dee-o

Ring die-deedle-o-die

Friend, I don′t know where ya been

But I see you won first prize!
