Lyrics
Night and day, she sang to him Aloha
‘Way down on Honolulu Bay
That’s the only way he’ll ever know ‘er
When he returns to her some day
‘Twas only yesterday he told me
I am on my way
Before she gets a chance to scold me
I’ll hold her and say
CHORUS
Hello, Aloha, how are you?
I’m bringing you kisses, from over the sea
Hello, Aloha, how are you?
I’m happy to find you still waiting for me
Now I can uke, and uke, and uke and uke
And you can uke a ukulele, too
And I can wick, and you can wack
And we can wicki, wicki, wacky woo
Hello, Aloha, how are you?
I’m glad to be back to Hawaii and you
Verse 2:
Every time he chanced to hear Aloha
He’d think of Honolulu Bay
He decided he would go and show ‘er
He’s thinking of her night and day
Hawaiian skies were never bluer
When he came her way
For he returned again to woo ‘er
Hold her close and say
Sung by Vladimir (Green Uke V):
