The Supremes - Whistle While You Work lyrics

rate me

(Larry Morey/Frank Churchill)

When the work begins to pile up

And your temper starts to rile up

That's the time a fellow needs a song

Doctor, banker, butcher, baker

You can be a merry maker

If you keep on singing all day long

If you're hanging in suspense from eight 'till five

And you wanna keep the sense of humour alive

Just whistle while you work

Put on that grin and start right in

To whistle loud and long

Just hum a merry tune

Do your best, then take a rest

And sing yourself a song

When there's too much to do

Don't let it bother you

Forget your troubles

Try to be just like a cheerful chick-a-dee

And whistle while you work

Come on get smart, tune up and startin' whistle while you work

Hey Mary, come on, you look a little tired

I want you to try this

OK

Golly, I'm chewin' bubblegum?

Hey Flo, come on it's your turn

Don't, come on

No, darling, I'm too busy digging this drummer

When there's too much to do

Don't let it bother you

Forget your troubles

Try to be just like a cheerful chick-a-dee

Hey, whistle while you work

Come on get smart, tune up and start to whistle while you

Hey Flo come on your turn

Mary?

Come on Florence, I'll teach you
