Funny that this version's Intro is exactly the same as the Rednex version that came 2 years later in 1994. I haven't found any earlier version yet that is sung the way Ricky Skaggs does it here. One can wonder if Rednex ever payed any copyright fee ;)

Actually the term Kilt may have been anglicized from Celt, which was not distinctly British. The Chieftains celebrated most of the Celtic Nations including the Galatians and the Bretons. Also, you tell a Scotsman they are British, I'll stay out of the way while he physically corrects you.

In America, these people are often grouped under the single name "Scotch-Irish" or "Scots-Irish". While various 20th-century writers tried to associate Appalachia with Scottish highlanders, Highland Scots were a relatively insignificant percentage of the region's early European immigrants

Scots is the Germanic language variety spoken in Lowland Scotland and parts of Ulster (where the local dialect is known as Ulster Scots).[6] It is sometimes called Lowland Scots to distinguish it from Scottish Gaelic

folklorist Cecil Sharp brought attention to Southern Appalachia when he noted that its inhabitants still sang hundreds of English and Scottish ballads that had been passed down to them from their ancestors. Commercial recordings of Appalachian musicians in the 1920s would have a significant impact on the development of country music, bluegrass, and old-time music.
