Down Hawaii way, where I chanced to stray
On an evening, I heard a Hula maiden play
Yaaka hula hickey dula, yaaka hula hickey du
Down Hawaii way, by the moonlight bay
When I lingered a while, she stole my heart away
Yaaka hula hickey dula, yaaka hula hickey du
Oh, I don't care if you've loved the ladies far and near
You'd forget about them all if you could hear
Yaaka hula hickey du la, yaaka hula hickey du
Far from me
I'll show you my hula lou
Beside the sea of Waikiki, won't you play for me?
And once again, you'll sway my heart away
With your yaaka hula, yaaka hula lou
Far from me
I'll show you my hula lou
Across the sea of Waikiki, oh, won't you play for me?
And once again, you'll sway my heart your way
With your yaaka hula, yaaka hula lou
