Whistling Tale: The Story of Trills and Toots

If you need to learn to whistle, 

Let me tell you a little tale. 

It’s the sure way to trill and toot. 

It will never ever fail. 

Put your lips together,

Like you’re going to kiss a frog,

Instead imagine a prince,

Not a fish or puppy dog. 

When you think of your darling, 

Your lips will get wet.

Then you’ll start to whistle. 

Don’t worry, I’m not done yet. 

Whistling is almost like singing,

And kissing makes you sing. 

So, if you want to learn to whistle,

Kiss your sweetheart as a king.

You can whistle for the world,

Whenever you want to whirl!

A girl can whistle her best, 

When a boy loves the girl!
