Lyrics 'Hula Love' On the isle of Filalila out Hawaiian way a Hula Maiden gay, strolled by a moonlit bay There come a* to court her over the water from the savage Zingazoola Land a Bullo Chieftain grand, sang her this way. --------------- And he sang: Hula, a Hawaiian Hula, smile on your Zingangazoola Moon shine above, on a sweet jungle love. For you a Ball will be swinging for you my love song i'm singing come be my Hula Hula Love [yeah yeah yeah). ------- But the Chieftain of the Worriors from the peaceful Filalila Land would not give him her hand her lover took his stand. To the Rival of the battle as she heard his sweet voice calm and true they fled in his Canoe,over water blue. ---------- And he sang: Hula, a Hawaiian Hula smile on your Zingangazoola Moon shine above on a sweet jungle love for you my Bolo is swinging for you my love song i'm singing come be my Hula Hula Love (yeah yeah yeah). ------------ [instrumental break] Hula, a Hawaiian Hula, smile on your Zingangazoola Moon shine above, on a sweet jungle love for you a Bolo is swinging, for you my love song I'm singing, come be my Hula, Hula Love (yeah yeah yeah).
