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 verse 1: 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 verse 2: 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 verse 3 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 verse 4 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
