************************************

CHORUS:
G D C DIf it wasn't for your wellies where would you be
G C DYou'd be in the hospital or infir-mary
G C G'Cause you would have a dose of the flu or even pleurisy
G D GIf you didn't have your feet in your well- ies
VERSE 1:
G C GOh wellies they are wonderful, oh wellies they are swell
G C G'Cause they keep out the water and they keep in the smell
G C GAnd when you're sitting in a room you can always tell
G D GWhen some bugger takes off his well - ies
CHORUS: VERSE 2:
G C GOh and when you're out walking in the country with a bird
G C GAnd you're strolling over fields just like a farmer's herd
G C GAnd somebody shouts, "Keep off the grass" and you think how absurd
G C Gand SQUELCH you find why farmers all wear well - ies
CHORUS: VERSE 3:
G C GThere's fishermen and firemen, there's farmers and all
G C GMen out digging ditches and working in the snow
G C GThis country it would grind to a halt and not a thing would grow
G C GIf it wasn't for the workers in their well - ies
CHORUS: VERSE 4:
G C GOh Edward Heath and Wilson they haven't made a hit
G C GThey're ruining this country more than just a bit
G C GIf they keep on the way they're going we'll all be in the (shhhhh)
G C GSo you'd better get your feet in your well - ies
CHORUS: P.S. The last verse is a bit dated as it refers to the political leaders of the time! You might want to try replacing it with this?: 'Oh Cameron and Mr Clegg they haven't made a hit'
