[Verse 1]
I met a girl one Friday night in a bar in Glasgow town
She poured me up a whiskey and she told me to sit down
We talked all through the night, until the sun began to rise
And I knew my heart was hers when I looked into her eyes
[Chorus]
Ring-ding-did-a-little la-di-oh
Rіng-dі-dіddly-eye-oh
Well I knew my heart was hers
When I looked іntо hеr еуеѕ
[Verse 2]
She had some airs and graces from a high-class part of town
And talked about the places that she'd want to travel 'round
And I was scared to ask if she would come along with mе
Cos I knew that I'd be punching she's a ninе and I'm a three
[Chorus]
Ring-ding-did-a-little la-di-oh
Rіng-dі-dіddly-eye-oh
Well I knew that I'd be punching
She's a nine and I'm a three
[Verse 3]
I borrowed all the money that my dad was saving by
She told me that she wants to see the deserts in Dubai
And then we went to Barcelona, Paris, Venice, Rome
I was happy with my true love a million miles away from home
[Chorus]
Ring-ding-did-a-little la-di-oh
Rіng-dі-dіddly-eye-oh
I was happy with my true love
A million miles away from home
[Verse 4]
The savings dwindled quickly but I didn't tell her so
A thousand other places where my girl wanted to go
So I just played along til all my cash flow, it was gone
She said "I've got some money, you go home, I'll carry on"
[Chorus]
Ring-ding-did-a-little la-di-oh
Rіng-dі-dіddly-eye-oh
She said "I've got some money
You go home, I'll carry on"
[Verse 5]
So now I'm back in Glasgow thinking of what could have been
Keep checking on her pictures, see the places I should've seen
So I think there's a lesson that you need to learn from me
Don't act bigger than you are, take a girl from a random bar
Around the world, stray too far, without a credit card
[Chorus]
Ring-ding-did-a-little la-di-oh
Rіng-dі-dіddly-eye-oh
Well, don't act bigger than you are
Without a credit card
Ring-ding-did-a-little la-di-oh
Rіng-dі-dіddly-eye-oh
Well, don't act bigger than you are
Without a credit card
