歌词
[Verse 1]
The five o'clock whistle's on the blink
The whistle won't blow and wha'd ya think?
My pop's still in the factory
Cause he don't know what time it happens to be
[Verse 2]
The five o'clock whistle didn't blow
The whistle is broke and wha'd do ya know
If somebody don't find out what's wrong
Oh, my pop be workin' all night long
[Verse 3]
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
[Verse 4]
You ought to hear what my mommy said
When pop came home and sneaked into bed
And told her, he worked will half past two
Cause the five o'clock whistle never blew
[Verse 5]
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
[Verse 6]
You ought to hear what my poppa said
When he sneaked into bed
He said, baby
Oh baby
I really worked will half past two
Cause the five o'clock whistle never blew
