Where Would You Be Without Your Wellies

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 wellies

If it wasnae for your wellies, where would you be?

You'd be in the hospital or infirmary

Cause you would have a dose of the flu or even pleurisy

If you didnae have your feet in your wellies!

But when yer oot walking, in the country way about

An yer strolling over fields just like a fairmer's herd

And somebody shouts "Keep aff the grass", and you think "How absurd"

And, squelch, you find why fairmers a' wear wellies

There's fishermen and firemen, there's farmers an a'

Men oot digging ditches an' working in the snaw;

This country it would grind tae a halt and no' a thing would graw

If it wasna for the workers in their wellies

Noo Edward Heath and Wilson, they havna made a hit

They're ruining this country, mair than just a bit

If they keep on the way they are goin', we'll all be in the sh..,

So you'd be'er get your feet in your wellies
