Holiday in Waikiki (Stereo Mix)

I won a competition in a little column in my local paper

So I packed my bags and flew across the sea all on my local paper

I sailed to

Hawaii in the

U.S.A.I’m just an

English boy who won a holiday in

WaikikiI didn’t realize it was commercialized when

I unpacked my cases

Because a genuine

Hawaii ukulele cost me 30 guineas

And even when

I’m swimming

I have to pay

I’m just an

English boy who won a holiday in

Waikiki, oh yeah, yeah

Across the coral sands

I saw a hula hula dancer, looking pretty

I asked her where she came from and she said to me

I come from

New York City and my mother is

Italian and my dad’s a

GreekI’m just an

English boy who won a holiday in

WaikikiIt’s a hooka, hooka on the shiny briny on a wake a hola

And in a little shack they had a little sign that said

Coca ColaAnd even all the grass skirts were

PVCI’m just an

English boy who won a holiday in

Waikiki, oh yeah, yeah

In Waikiki, in

Waikiki
