["Hula Love" was based on a 1911 song titled "My Hula Hula Love" by Percy Wenrich and Edward Madden]
|
|
On the isle of Filalilla
|
Out Hawaii way
|
A hula maiden gay
|
Strolled by a moonlit bay
|
There come to court her over the water
|
From a savage Zingazulu land
|
A Bolo chieftain grand
|
Sang her this lay
|
|
And he sang
|
Hulu Hawai hula
|
Smile on your zing gang a zula
|
Moon shine above
|
On your sweet jungle love
|
For you my bolo is swinging
|
For you my love song I'm singing
|
Come be my Hula, Hula love
|
(Ya, ya, ya)
|
|
But the chieftain from the peaceful Filalilla land
|
Would not give him her hand
|
Her lover took his stand
|
Through the rattle of the battle
|
As she heard his sweet voice calm and true
|
They fled in his canoe over water blue
|
|
And he sang
|
Hulu Hawai hula
|
Smile on your zing gang a zula
|
Moon shine above
|
On your sweet jungle love
|
For you my bolo is swinging
|
For you my love song I'm singing
|
Come be my Hula Hula love
|
(Ya, ya, ya)
|

Hulu Hawai hula

Smile on your zing gang a zula
|
Moon shine above
|
On your sweet jungle love
|
For you my bolo is swinging
|
For you my love song I'm singing
|
Come be my Hula, Hula love
|
(Ya, ya, ya)
|
|
Hula love
|
Hula love
|
Hula love
