Way out there in mid-Pacific
They have some funny notions
Do the hula
If there's anything you'd like to say, it's the only way
That you'll find that a trip around the island is fun, when you've once begun
Talk about the moon above so high
Talk about the humunuku swimming on by
Talk about the boys all hurrying back
To the little brown gal in the little grass shack
So hula
If you like to whisper I love you
That's the thing to do
Picking flowers gets them all the time
In that tropical clime
When you walk on the silvery sands
You never have to talk, just use your hands
Hula
Go into your dance, oh yeah,
So do the hula
Along the road to romance
