When I was a lad, I remember me dad coming home late Friday night
Mum would be there, she'd give him a glare, cos he'd be as 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 me wobbly boot on
Now my uncle's the same, he was never to blame when he came to our house
He'd light up the barbie, rip the top off a stubby and sit there quiet as a mouse
But later in the evening when he was leaving, even though he was wearing 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 nothing worse, makes you feel like a big galoose
When you're standing there full of cheer and something 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
Well that was years ago and now I know all about these worldly things
How you gotta have some good times in your lifetime, have your little flings
But early in the morning when you're yawning and you're not feeling too strong
You're wishing over and over you'd stayed sober if you didn't have your wobbly boot on
Oh, it's a curse, there ain't nothing worse, makes you feel like a big galoose
When you're standing there full of cheer and something 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
You know Slim, it's a dirty job but I reckon somebody should look into this little matter
Cause it seems to me the boot makers must be using wobbly leather
It's a flaming disgrace to the Aussie race and it's gone on for far too long
They should make them stronger, make them last longer, then we wouldn't have our wobbly boots on
Oh, it's a curse, there ain't nothing worse, makes you feel like a big galoose
When you're standing there full of cheer and something 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
You blame it on your wobbly boot
