Learn To Do The Hula - Sonny Kamahele


I want to teach you to do the hula
On the beach at Waikîkiî
It's an easy way to spend the day
Doing the hula, hula e
You stretch your arms out
You bend your kness
There's a count for every step
It's four to the right
Four to the left
Four when you turn around


Chorus:
There's the moon, the stars, the ocean blue
The trees, the wind, the valley, too
The birds, the fish, the house we love
All this we learn in a single sway
And now you know how to do the hula
It's easy as can be
You can take with you
Take the others, too
That's the way to learn the hula
