Whistle - Nick Woods, The New Christy Minstrels

Oh, I bought a wooden whistle and it ‘wooden' whistle

No matter how I tried

It was a fine wooden whistle, but it ‘wooden' whistle

So I sat right down and cried

Then I bought a steel whistle and it ‘steel wooden' whistle

No matter what I would do

It was a shiny steel whistle

But it ‘steel wooden' whistle

So I sat right down and went ‘boo-boo-hoo!'

Then I bought a tin whistle

Just a plain tin whistle

It only cost a dime

Just an ordinary whistle

Just a simple tin whistle

And now I ‘tin whistle' all the time

(Whistling)
