"Give a Little Whistle" is a song featured in Walt Disney's 1940 adaptation of Pinocchio, sung by Jiminy Cricket and Pinocchio.

The song is also featured in the Once Upon a Time episode "Pilot", being whistled by Archie.
Lyrics
Jiminy: When you get in trouble and
You don't know right from wrong,
Give a little whistle!
Give a little whistle!
When you meet temptations and
The urge is very strong
Give a little whistle!
Give a little whistle!
Not Just a little squeak,
pucker up and blow
And when your whistle's weak yell.
Pinocchio: Jiminy Cricket?
Jiminy: Right. Take the straight and
narrow path and if you start to slide
Give a little whistle!
Give a little whistle!
And always let your conscience be your guide
(Instrumental bridge)
Jiminy: Take the straight and narrow path
And if your start to slide
Give a little whistle!
Give a little whistle!
And always let your conscience be your guide.
Pinocchio: And always let your conscience be your guide!
Jiminy: Give yourself a cross-examination.
Are you just about to make a big mistake?
Well, here's a way to save the situation.
So learn it now, for heaven's sake,
Give your better self a break.
