Lyrics:

On the isle of Filla Lilla out Hawaii way

A hula maiden gay strolled by a moonlit bay

There come a to court her over the water from a savage Zinga Zululand

A bolo chief-tain grand sang her this lay

And he sang hula hawaiian hula smile on your zing gang a zula

Moonshine above on our sweet jungle love

For you my bolo is swinging for you my love song I'm singing

Come be my hula hula love

[ steel ]

But the chief-tain of the warriors from the peaceful Filla Lilla land

Would not give him her hand her love took his stand

Through the rattle of the battle as she heard his sweet voice strong and true

They fled in his canoe over water blue

And he sang hula...

And he sang hula...

Hula love hula love hula love
