Blow Me Down



Blow Me Down is a Wiggles song from It's a Wiggly Wiggly World!. Splish Splash Big Red Boat for an unknown reason. The song is based on a gag that happens a lot with Captain Feathersword and the gag is mostly responsible for his falling down skit. This gimmick originally debuted in The Wiggles: Live at Disneyland television special in 1998.

Lyrics
Blow me down, blow me down, blow me down

Give it your best shot

Well blow me down, blow me down

Blow me down

Give it all you got

Breathe in deep and fill those lungs

Look out now ‘cause here it comes

How would you like to play this game?

With The Wiggles and their friends?

“Greg, can I go first?”

Once you start its hard to stop

The fun will never end

“I can’t wait”

All it takes is three little words

Say them loud, make sure you’re heard

Blow me down, blow me down

Give it your best shot

“My turn now”

Blow me down, blow me down

Give it all you got

Breathe in deep and fill those lungs

Look out now ‘cause here it comes

“Whoah ho me hearties. Ho ho ho ho

Oh this is my favorite game. Ho ho ho

Come on now – one, two, three

Blow me down Whoo ho hoo

Ha ha ha ha ha

Oh, oh dear I’m going to be blown over”

Some people play running games

And others like to dance

But there’s a game you’ll play again

When you get the chance

All it takes is three little words

Say them loud, make sure you’re heard

“Blow me down, blow me down”

Give it your best shot

Wags: “Ruff ruff ruff, Ruff ruff ruff”

Give it all you got

Breathe in deep and fill those lungs

Look out now ‘cause here it comes

Breathe in deep and fill those lungs

Look out now 'cause here it comes

Breathe in deep and fill those lungs

Greg: (Speaking) Hey, I just realized. I haven’t said it yet

(Singing) Won’t you blow me down?

Speaking) Oh, thanks.
