Now you wash the dishes

You tidy up the room

You clean those cobwebs

What?

And he'll use the broom

Me?

Whistle while you work

And cheerfully together, we can tidy up the place

So hum a merry tune

It won’t take long when there's a song to help you set the pace

And as you sweep the floor
What used to be a bore
Will feel just like a game and not the same old chore it was before
Whistle while you work

You'll get it!

When wе’re a team, the housе will gleam, so whistle while you work
Whistle while you work

It's easy to get through it when we do it hand in hand
So catch that merry tune

I'll take it!
When work is fun, the work gets done in half the time you planned
Wait! I think that brush is mine
You shoulda hung a sign
If you don't hush, I'll take this brush and shove it where the sun don't shine
Whistle while you work

Your bickering won't fix a thing, so whistle while you work

It's easy to get through it
When we do it hand in hand
Whistle while you work

We’ve scrubbed the house together, now it’s clean as clean can be
So hum a merry tune

This grimy group became a troupe that feels like family
What used to be a mess (To be a mess)
That lived at this address (That lived at this address)
Is now clean as a whistle just from whistlin' sounds of happiness

Whistle while you work

When work is fun, the work gets done
It’s mighty fine when we combine
It won't take long when there's a song, so whistle while you work
