[Verse 1]
Whistle while you work
Put on that grin and start right in
To whistle loud and long
Just hum a merry tune
Just do your best
Then take a rest and sing yourself a song

[Verse 2]
When there's too much to do
Don't let it bother you
Forget your troubles
Try to be just like the cheerful chick-a-dee
And whistle while you work
Come on get smart
Tune up and start
To whistle while you work

[Instrumental Break]

[Verse 3]
Yes when there's too much to do
Don't let it bother you
Forget your troubles
Try to be just like that cheerful chick-a-dee
Whistle while you work
Come on get smart
Tune up and start
To whistle while you work
