A high toned gal has won me,
a belle of sweet sixteen,
She is the swellest gal I've seen,
this Honolulu hula queen,
For style and grace ma lady
is ev'rything that's swell,
She is a dream,
this Honolulu belle;
When she goes by the ladies sigh,
de coons all wink dere eyes;
And when ma gal goes down de line,
the natives they all cry.

She is a dream,
ma Honolulu queen,
the sweetest girl that ever was seen;
she is divine this hula girl of mine,
She is the belle of Honolulu

She is a dream,
ma Honolulu queen,
the sweetest girl that ever was seen;
she is divine this hula girl of mine,
She is the belle of Honolulu.

Next Easter morn I'll wed her,
this Oriental queen,
Den wedding bells will sweetly chime,
and with ma bride I'll fall in line,
All decked in orange blossoms
and silks and satins fine;
She'll soon be mine,
this Hula gal divine;
De choir will sing
and chant a hymn
when I put on de ring;
And when I march out with ma bride,
the natives they will sing.

She is a dream,
ma Honolulu queen,
the sweetest girl that ever was seen;
she is divine this hula girl of mine,
She is the belle of Honolulu

She is a dream,
ma Honolulu queen,
the sweetest girl that ever was seen;
she is divine this hula girl of mine,
She is the belle of Honolulu.
