Well - it is 'off to work' initially and then 'home from work' at the end :) My kids are addicted to this film so it goes around in my head all the time!

Explanation:
ORIGINAL DISNEY SONG, SPELLED THIS WAY (HEIGH-HO) from 1937 animated movie Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs (http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0029583/)
sound's like "hi", not "hey"...
