Along The Way To Waikiki 1917

Far away far away
where the balmy breezes blow,
where they sway while they play
ukeleles sweet and low
where my heart is I am going
and I wish you were going too,
If you stray down that way
I'll be there to welcome you.

And if you like you can hike with me
along the way to Waikiki
where the palm trees swaying
playing in the breeze
Harmonize with those Hawaiian melodies.
That's why I yearn to return once more
I want to stroll o'er the golden shore,
where the sil'vry stars and the steel guitars
stole a part of the heart of me
along the way to Waikiki.

And if you like you can hike with me
along the way to Waikiki
where the palm trees swaying
playing in the breeze
Harmonize with those Hawaiian melodies.
That's why I yearn to return once more
I want to stroll o'er the golden shore,
where the sil'vry stars and the steel guitars
stole a part of the heart of me
along the way to Waikiki.

If you go then I know
You will learn to love it too,
Eyes aglow Voices low,
Singing love songs just for you,
If the world looks blue and dreary
and you long for a place worth while,
Let me know Let me show
You that sunny sun kissed isle.

And if you like you can hike with me
along the way to Waikiki
where the palm trees swaying
playing in the breeze
Harmonize with those Hawaiian melodies.
That's why I yearn to return once more
I want to stroll o'er the golden shore,
where the sil'vry stars and the steel guitars
stole a part of the heart of me
along the way to Waikiki.

And if you like you can hike with me
along the way to Waikiki
where the palm trees swaying
playing in the breeze
Harmonize with those Hawaiian melodies.
That's why I yearn to return once more
I want to stroll o'er the golden shore,
where the sil'vry stars and the steel guitars
stole a part of the heart of me
along the way to Waikiki.
