Lyrics

  1. As I strolled along the beach
    At Waikiki
    I met a little hula maid
    Who winked at me
    Who winked at me
    Her form was most divine
    Face was fairy-like, too
    She wore a happy smile
    And a pink mumu
    And a pink mumu

Chorus
She’s my little hula maid
And I love her true
Indeed I do, indeed I do
If she was yours
Now would not you?
But she’s all my own
In her pink mumu
In her pink mumu

  1. She can hula on the land
    She can hula in the sea
    She’s my little hula maid
    And I’ll faithful be
    And I’ll faithful be
    When I smile at other girls
    Then she gets huhu
    She’s my little hula maid
    In her pink mumu
    In her pink mumu
  2. When she looks into my eyes
    Then my heart feels gay
    So we take a joy ride
    Till break of day
    Till break of day
    Her voice is like a birds
    She can bill and coo
    She’s my little hula maid
    In her pink mumu
    In her pink mumu
