On a tropical isle far across the sea
There in a tropical style 'neath a mango tree
Lives a little brown gal who's everybody's pal
Life to her is just a breeze
With a tropical flower in her long black hair
She's the girl of the hour on that island fair
She may wear an old sarong, but she doesn't wear it long
She's the siren of the seven seas
They call her Sadie
The little south sea lady
They say that Sadie is the reason
For the heavy tourist season
In the isles so many miles across the sea
The boys rise early
To see this streamlined girlie
For she's the principal attraction
When that gal goes into action
Reservations for vacations reach capacity
So if you're down in hula town
And you run across a certain little lady
With big brown eyes that tantalize
You can bet your bottom coconut the little girl is no one but
Sadie, the little south sea lady
Oh she's the pride of the Pacific
That wahine is terrific
Now you know why you should go to see
The sunny isles so many miles across the sea
Sadie, the little south sea lady
When Sadie rolls her walawala
She's a very hot tamala
Now you know why you should go to see
The sunny isles so many miles across the sea
