THE HUKILAU SONG

Da-ba, da-ba, da-ba, da-ba
Da-ba, da-ba, da-ba, da-ba

Da-ba, da-ba, da-da, da-ba, da

 

Oh, we're going to the hukilau
Huki, huki, huki, huki, huki, hukilau
Ev'rybody loves the hukilau
Where the lau lau is the kau kau at the hukilau.

We throw our nets out into the sea

And all the ama ama come a-swimming to me

Oh, we're going to the hukilau
Huki, huki, huki, huki, hukilau.

What a beautiful day for fishin’
The old Hawaiian way
And the hukilau net was swishin’
Down in old Laie Bay.

Oh, we're going to the hukilau
Huki, huki, huki, huki, huki, hukilau
Ev'rybody loves the hukilau
Where the lovely hula hula maidens roll their eyes.

 

The silvery moon is shinning above

The kanes and wahines

Sing a song about love

Oh, we're going to the hukilau
Huki, huki, huki, huki, hukilau.

 

The silvery moon is shinning above

The kanes and wahines

Sing a song about love

Oh, we're going to the hukilau
Huki, huki, huki, huki, hukilau

Huki, huki, huki, huki, hukilau

Huki, huki, huki, huki, huki, huki, huki, huki, huki, huki, huki, huki, hukilau.
