Let me tell you who I am
Red-blooded American
I work 12 hour days
Sweating hard for crap pay
The days are far too long
When at last the weekend comes
The pants go in the bin
And the kilt comes on again
Some days I wake up with a joyful expression
As I wrap my kilt round my waist
I latch on my sporran, pull up my stockings
A smile grows on my face
Then I'm off to the pub or the fair or the fest
A wee swing goes into each step
'Cause I'm American born and Celtic forever
And both are truly blessed
I may never know what it means to be normal
Nor have I knowingly cared
I will dance through the streets tho it makes you uncomfortable
My kilt will fly in the air
Because it's my kilty pleasure
Some say that I'm strange or call me a girl
They like to make fun of me
I blow off their jokes because I am proud
Of my Scottish ancestry
But I'm also proud of the blood in my veins
As different as our country
My kilt is a symbol of the land that I love
And all of its diversity
I may never know what it means to be normal
Nor have I knowingly cared
I will dance through the streets though it makes you uncomfortable
My kilt will fly in the air
Because it's my kilty pleasure
Yes, it's my kilty pleasure

Yes, it's my kilty pleasure
You can say what you like, but the times they are changing
We celebrate our differences
Be ye black, brown, or white, I will fight for your rights
Cuz I know what it means to be scared
See, my family wore kilts and we fought in Culloden
We Celts were all one time oppressed
So I'll tear down your walls with my southern drawl
While donning my highland dress
I may never know what it means to be normal
Nor have I knowingly cared
I will dance through the streets though it makes you uncomfortable
