The Honolulu Hicki Boola Boo 1916

by James Pitt-Payne, London UK - 04 Jul 2005

It's goin' to get you,
it's goin' to get you,
the Honolulu Hicki Boola Boo,
I'm goin' to let you,
I'm goin' to let you,
See the way a Hula,
does the Hicki Boola
down in Honolu,
I'll show you what they do.

Step up forward, then retreat,
keep your fingers going
while you move your feet,
Slide up, glide up,
nice and slow,
the music sighin', is real Hawaiian,
when the ukeleles play,
it simply carries you away,
you do the "Yacki Hicki Dola"
'way down low
you knock your knees together
and away you go.
Come on, Honey,
that's the way you do
The Honolulu Hicki Boola Boo.

Step up forward, then retreat,
keep your fingers going
while you move your feet,
Slide up, glide up,
nice and slow,
the music sighin', is real Hawaiian,
when the ukeleles play,
it simply carries you away,
you do the "Yacki Hicki Dola"
'way down low
you knock your knees together
and away you go.
Come on, Honey,
that's the way you do
The Honolulu Hicki Boola Boo.

It's so peculiar,
It's so peculiar,
that Honolulu Hicki Boola Boo,
it's bound to fool you,
it's bound to fool you,
ev'ry little movement,
has a new improvement
that may puzzle you
but it's not hard to do.

Step up forward, then retreat,
keep your fingers going
while you move your feet,
Slide up, glide up,
nice and slow,
the music sighin', is real Hawaiian,
when the ukeleles play,
it simply carries you away,
you do the "Yacki Hicki Dola"
'way down low
you knock your knees together
and away you go.
Come on, Honey,
that's the way you do
The Honolulu Hicki Boola Boo.

Step up forward, then retreat,
keep your fingers going
while you move your feet,
Slide up, glide up,
nice and slow,
the music sighin', is real Hawaiian,
when the ukeleles play,
it simply carries you away,
you do the "Yacki Hicki Dola"
'way down low
you knock your knees together
and away you go.
Come on, Honey,
that's the way you do
The Honolulu Hicki Boola Boo.
