The Drunk Scotsman is a traditional Scottish folk comedy song, also performed as The Scotsman, about a well dressed Scotsman who falls asleep by the roadside after drinking. Two young women find him, lift his kilt to check a famous rumour, and leave a blue ribbon as a joke. Its ring-ding diddle chorus is the part most people remember and clip for soundboards. Recordings by folk groups and pub singers helped it spread at festivals, on radio, and later in online videos and meme edits.

Short clip of The Drunk Scotsman folk song chorus with the ring-ding diddle lyric, often used for Scottish jokes, pub scenes and drunken singalongs.
This short clip captures the catchy chorus from The Drunk Scotsman, with a cheerful male voice singing ring-ding diddle idle i de-o over a lively folk backing. The bouncy rhythm and playful nonsense syllables make it instantly recognisable, even without the verses about the kilt. It lands as a burst of pub singalong energy, turning an ordinary moment into a cheeky Scottish celebration. The delivery feels tipsy and good natured rather than polished, which adds to the comedy and makes the loop easy to drop into edits.
