I'll never forget the Burns Night dinner I went to, where a friend delivered a very well-written "Toast to the Lassies." The only problem was that he decided to use a "broguish" accent, which sounded much, much more Irish than Scottish. It almost couldna eat m' haggis.
LOL - I was taught a few songs by friends from Motherwell. To this day, I can't sing them straight, I have to sing them with a brogue.
