The Welly Boot Song -  Billy Connolly

Tabbed By Jonas Beard

		A		E     D		      E
CHORUS: If it wasn't for your wellies where would you be
	A			      D     E
	You'd be in the hospital or infir-mary
	A					    D	   A
	'Cause you would have a dose of the flu or even pleurisy
	A				      E     A
	If you didn't have your feet in your well- ies

	A			D		    A
Oh wellies they are wonderful, oh wellies they are swell
A				D		     E
'Cause they keep out the water and they keep in the smell
A				D		A
And when you're sitting in a room you can always tell
A 			          E    A
When some bugger takes off his well - ies

		A		E       D	      E
CHORUS: If it wasn't for your wellies where would you be
	A			     D     E
	You'd be in the hospital or infir-mary
	A					    D	   A
	'Cause you would have a dose of the flu or even pleurisy
	A				     E     A
	If you didn't have your feet in your well- ies

	A				D		A
Oh and when you're out walking in the country with a bird
		A			D		E
And you're strolling over fields just like a farmer's herd
     A						D	     A
And somebody shouts, "Keep off the grass" and you think how absurd
	A				   E      A
and SQUELCH you find why farmers all wear well - ies

		A		E       D	      E
CHORUS: If it wasn't for your wellies where would you be
	A			     D     E
	You'd be in the hospital or infir-mary
	A					    D	   A
	'Cause you would have a dose of the flu or even pleurisy
	A				     E     A
	If you didn't have your feet in your well- ies

	A				D	    A
There's fishermen and firemen, there's farmers and all
A				D	    E
Men out digging ditches and working in the snow
	A				   D		     A
This country it would grind to a halt and not a thing would grow
	A				E     A
If it wasn't for the workers in their well - ies

		A		E       D	      E
CHORUS: If it wasn't for your wellies where would you be
	A			     D     E
	You'd be in the hospital or infir-mary
	A					    D	   A
	'Cause you would have a dose of the flu or even pleurisy
	A				     E     A
	If you didn't have your feet in your well- ies

    A				D		A
Oh Edward Heath and Wilson they haven't made a hit
	A			D		E
They're ruining this country more than just a bit
	A				     D	           A
If they keep on the way they're going we'll all be in the (shhhhh)
	A				E     A
So you'd better get your feet in your well - ies
		A		E       D	      E

CHORUS: If it wasn't for your wellies where would you be

	'Cause you would have a dose of the flu or even pleurisy
	A				     E     A
	If you didn't have your feet in your well- ies
