Honolulu Girl - R. Alex Anderson |
She always wears, a flower lei She's Hawaiian all the way It's her lovely hula hands It's her `ami`ami It's her style, Hawaiian style Hui: So you could say, I've been around A lot of gorgeous girls I found But they never can compare With my lovely Honolulu girl (Honolulu girl) When the moon shines bright in the tropic night Ku`u ipo comes to me She says, "I love you" And I know it's true In the moonlight by the sea |
