| The five o’clock whistle’s on the blink,
|
| The whistle won’t blow and whadd’ya think?
|
| My pop is still in the factory 'cause he don’t know
|
| What time it happens to be.
|
| The five o’clock whistle didn’t blow
|
| The whistle is broke and whadda’ya know?
|
| If somebody don’t find out what’s wrong
|
| Oh, my pop’ll be workin' all night long,
|
| Oh! |
| Who’s gonna fix the whistle?
|
| Won’t somebody fix the whistle?
|
| Oh! |
| Who’s gonna fix the whistle?
|
| So my poor old pop will know
|
| It’s time for him to stop
|
| Ya ought to hear what my mommy said,
|
| When papa came home and sneaked into bed
|
| And told her he worked till half past two
|
| 'Cause the five o’clock whistle never blew. |
