Tapa Bar-The Tapa Bar is a beautiful place located off the elevator from the Tapa Towers. The covered structure and the cool island breeze give a lounge relaxing feeling. During the day, it was a good rendezvous place or to sit on the many couches to read. The bar offers meals and at night offers live entertainment.
One night while we found out one of our members, Sandy Powers, had been in the Navy for 20 years. She proceeded to tell us that she was an opening act over seas. We asked her what she did and she proceeded to sing us some tunes. Below is one she sang!
The Scottish Kilt
Well a Scotsman clad in kilt left a bar on evening fair
And one could tell by how we walked that he drunk more than his share
He fumbled round until he could no longer keep his feet
Then he stumbled off into the grass to sleep beside the street
Ring ding diddle diddle I de oh ring di diddly I oh
He stumbled off into the grass to sleep beside the street
About that time two young and lovely girls just happend by
And 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 diddle diddle I de oh ring di diddly I oh
I wonder if it's true what they don't wear beneath the kilt
They crept up on that sleeping Scotsman quiet as could be
Lifted up his kilt about an inch so they could see
And there behold, for them to see, beneath his Scottish skirt
Was nothing more than God had graced him with upon his birth
Ring ding diddle diddle I de oh ring di diddly I oh
Was nothing more than God had graced him with upon his birth
They marveled for a moment, then one said we must be gone
Let's leave a present for our friend, before we move along
As a gift they left a blue silk ribbon, tied into a bow
Around the bonnie star, the Scots kilt did lift and show
Ring ding diddle diddle I de oh ring di diddly I oh
Around the bonnie star, the Scots kilt did lift and show
Now the Scotsman woke to nature's call and stumbled towards a tree
Behind a bush, he lift his kilt and gawks at what he sees
And in a startled voice he says to what's before his eyes.
O lad I don't know where you been but I see you won first prize
Ring ding diddle diddle I de oh ring di diddly I oh
O lad I don't know where you been but I see you won first prize.
As you can imagine we were laughing so hard that we drew quite a bit of attention. We didn’t notice some of us we were still howling, crying or running to the bathroom. Some of the crowd was video/audio taping this. If I am lucky and get a copy of a clip I will put it up here, because when Sandy sings this it is BEYOND hilarious! In the midst of our laughter a YOUNG man thought we were the happening crowd and started making his way through every woman in our group, well minus Sandy. She is like 6'2. I coined him THE PUP (12 year old). His line was: “He hadn’t seen any action below in a long time” which I have to say was disturbing. We are a protective bunch so we were keeping an eye on the PUP!
