Intro: D with Dsus4 for flair at the
 end of the measure.

             D
When I was a young un', I knew a lad
 from Ballybunion
He hadn't got a single penny to his 
A
name, you might say
                 D
He had a raggedy coat, and like two 
rubber boats
            Bm                     
He kept his wellington boots on 
     A        D
from December to May


Chorus:
             G                     
It was Kevin Kelly, with his 
      D
chopped off wellies
                     A             
In the middle of the summer time he
             D
 was looking fine!
              G                    
His pants had holes in the knees 
         Bm           A
but he was proud as you please
            G    A         
With his ol' wellies he keep 
              D
strolling along


            D
As we got older and slyer and bolder
and the girls we had our eyes on 
         A
they got older as well
                    G              
With paint on their faces and 
          D
curves in nice places
             Bm                    
Well we were dressed to impress 
         A               D
them and we thought we were swell!

Well our duds were in fashion to 
kindle their passion
But there was Kevin on the dance 
              A
floor looking anything but neat
                 D
He was tryin' to flirt in his 
hand-me-down shirt,
         Bm                      A
with the same ol' wellies on his 
       D
two big feet!

Well we teased him and we mocked 
him, but sure that never shocked 
him,
   Bm                           
he painted on some laces and cut 
      A
them down to look like shoes.
            Em
He was poor but he had style, he 
made everybody smile
       A
He wore his ol' wellies!
He wore his ol' wellies!
He wore his ol' wellies!
                         D    G    
Like he'd nothin' to lose!

The next time we found him, well the
 girls were all around him
He was busting the moves, he was 
A
happy as can be
                      D        
One of the girls came near, and 
           G
whispered in my ear...
      D                          
notes:  A      F#   D
"Only boys who wear their wellies 
have a chance wit' me."
