O'Brien is tryin to learn to talk Hawai'ian
To his Honolulu Lou
He's sighin and cryin
And all the time he's tryin
Just to say "I love you true"
With his "Ar-rah Ya-ka Hu-la
Be-gor-ra Hick-i Du-lah"
And his Irish "Ji-ji-boo."
Sure, O'Brien is tryin to learn to talk Hawai'ian
To his Honolulu Lou
He's sighin and lyin in Irish and Hawai'ian
To his wife and Lulu, too.
While he writes a lot of Blarney
To Katie in Kilarney
And she thinks that he is true.
Sure, O'Brien is tryin to learn to talk Hawai'ian
To his Honolulu Lou
He's sighin and cryin and all the time he's tryin
Just to say "I love you true."
He won Bridget, Kate and Mary
By singin "Tip-per-ar-y"
And he'll win his Lulu, too.
O'Brien is tryin to learn to talk Hawai'ian
To his Honolulu Lou-u-u-u.
A big mahalo to Antonetwo for sending these lyrics.
