If it wasn't for your wellies where would you be
You'd be in the hospital or infir-mary
'Cause you would have a dose of the flu or even pleurisy
If you didn't have your feet in your well- ies
Oh wellies they are wonderful, oh wellies they are swell
'Cause they keep out the water and they keep in the smell
And when you're sitting in a room you can always tell
When some bugger takes off his well - ies
Chorus
Oh and when you're out walking in the country with a bird
And you're strolling over fields just like a farmer's herd
And somebody shouts, "Keep off the grass" and you think how absurd
and SQUELCH you find why farmers all wear well - ies
Chorus
There's fishermen and firemen, there's farmers and all
Men out digging ditches and working in the snow
This country it would grind to a halt and not a thing would grow
If it wasn't for the workers in their well - ies
Chorus
Oh Edward Heath and Wilson they haven't made a hit
They're ruining this country more than just a bit
If they keep on the way they're going we'll all be in the (shhhhh)
So you'd better get your feet in your well - ies
Chorus
