On the isle of Filla Lilla out Hawaii way    A hula maiden gay strolled by on moonlit bay   There came to court her over the water from a savage Zinga Zululand   A bolo chief-tain grand sang her this lay      And he sang hula Hawaii 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 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 calm and true   They fled in his canoe o'er waters blue   And he sang hula...   And he sang hula...   Hula love hula love hula love
