| When I was a lad, I remember me Dad
|
| Comin' home late Friday nights
|
| Mum’d be there, she’d give him a glare
|
| 'Cause he’d be high as a kite
|
| He’d say, «Sorry I’m late, I had a couple with the mates
|
| And we started to sing a few songs
|
| And the next thing you know, it was time to go
|
| And I had the wobbly boot on…»
|
| Now, me uncle’s the same, he was never to blame
|
| When he came to our house
|
| He’d light up the barbie, rip the top of a stubby
|
| And sit there quiet as a mouse
|
| But later in the evenin' when he was leavin'
|
| Even though he was wearin' thongs
|
| He’d say to me: «I'm a bit shaky —
|
| I think I got me wobbly boot on»
|
| Oh, it’s a curse, there ain’t nothin' worse
|
| Makes you feel like a big galoot
|
| When you’re standin' there, full of cheer
|
| And somethin' goes wrong with your boot
|
| You feel like a fool, you try to be cool
|
| But you know it’s no use
|
| So you blame it on your wobbly, wobbly
|
| Blame it on your wobbly boot
|
| Your wobbly, wobbly boot |
