Five O'Clock Whistle
The five o'clock whistle's on the blink
The whistle won't blow and what do you 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 what do you know?
If somebody don't find out what's wrong
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 'til half past two
'Cause the five o'clock whistle never blew
The whistle won't blow and what do you 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 what do you know?
If somebody don't find out what's wrong
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 'til half past two
'Cause the five o'clock whistle never blew
